Chosen option: "PyEnv", because it allows to manage the full workflow of installing and
uninstalling Python versions.

I think developing a little more why other options are not chosen.
In that way, pipenv or altinstall could also manage the install and uninstall of Python versions.

As a reminder, at time of writing, ODC only actively support linux, MacOS, and
POSIX unix systems.

Does Anaconda could also be on the list of considered options ?
Would be disqualified against pyenv as much more complex for this task only and some issues with transient dependencies (especially C++ ones) that make it less reliable.
