> Does not default to running post-install scripts (must manually approve each)
To get equivalent protection, use `--only-binary=:all:` when running `pip install` (or `uv pip install`). This prevents installing source distributions entirely, using exclusively pre-built wheels. (Note that this may limit version ability or even make your installation impossible.) Python source packages are built by following instructions provided with the package (specifying a build system which may then in turn be configured in an idiosyncratic way; the default Setuptools is configured using a Python script). As such, they effectively run a post-install script.
(For PAPER, long-term I intend to design a radically different UI, where you can choose a named "source" for each package or use the default; and sources are described in config files that explain the entire strategy for whether to use source packages, which indexes to check etc.)

Pip does not support this; with uv, use `--exclude-newer`. This appears to require a timestamp; so if you always want things up to X days old you'll have to recalculate.
