Well, you are doing it in a way that will break your OS, eventually. It’s not a question
of DNF becoming “tougher”. You are suggesting people use two different package managers,
simultaneously, and neither knows about the other.
Imagine hiring two builders to install a new furnace in a house, and not telling them
about the other. You’d end up with two confused builders and a broken furnace.
If you want to use pip as root and can’t be bothered to use virtual environments, install
python outside of DNF, either from source into /usr/local or /opt, or use something like
“conda”, which has its own prefix. Then, at least if it breaks something, it won’t prevent
you from updating your OS.
FWIW, in Centos 8 stream, DNF uses a python that isn’t installed as /usr/bin/python so it
is less likely for ignorant people to break, although I’ve discovered that Ansible *does*
find it and will happy install python modules in it and break things.
