I have, actually (though not Pipsi). Some others have commented on that and lead me to them.
Part of the "fun" of it was just doing it, I guess, and knowing exactly what went into it. Just a few lines of Bash, really.
I enjoy writing JS. It's actually my favorite programming language.
But there are plenty of times when it's unnecessary.
In essence, I see pip as the more standardized option, given its inclusion with Python. However, I initially turned to Poetry because I prefer its commands over those of pip. What slightly disappoints me is Poetry's divergence from pip's workflow.
I appreciate your suggestion in the README! At the moment it's definitely more of a personal endeavor rather than trying to persuade anyone to use it... however, it doesn't intend to introduce anything new, it's just a CLI wrapper around standard Python tools.
Of course, it could include a way to "convert" a pip-based package to Poetry, or whatnot.
My use case is to primarily help me understand pip/venv a bit better and do more experiments with bash.
