So how does package baz invoke python? and how does it know it got the 
right version?

Thank you for the pointer (see the bug history) to the python policy. I 
understand where you're coming from better now. But you still seem to be 
saying the bug should be closed because the change it requests is 
counter to the policy *whose behavior the bug report is against*. That 
seems inappropriate to me.
