I have the same issue, while I do understand your point, it can be installed with apt, but many python developer uses virtual environment, in which we use pip to install packages, such as is mandatory for cross distro development.
For example my case is so that I run an other distro on my desktop, other distro on the build servers, and a 3rd one on the target device, where I need the package. I think the real question if Ubuntu is willing to support the pip version of the package or not? Is it put into pip by canonical on the first place ?
