The package *python3-pip* exists alike in v11 (Bullseye) and v12 (Bookworm), but, whereas *pip* was installed by default as part of *python* in v11 (Bullseye), in v12 (Bookworm) it is not. It must be installed via the above package, and *pip* will not actually run outside a virtual environment. This is to avoid conflicts between what *apt* installs in the Debian system environment and what *pip* installs in whatever environment. ... so *pip* installations in virtual environments, being good things, are being enforced, too. *WeeWX*'s installation instructions for *pip* in virtual environments (and for *apt* system-wide installations for that matter) seem correct. I believe I'm right in saying that *pip* is no longer packaged with *python*, but I can't find any good, concise summary of the situation in *python* release notes, Debian release notes, or on the 'Net.
