`setup.py install` is a bad idea

[jamesmyatt]

pip install . is the correct way to install from source

Hello! Thanks for your feedback. Could you elaborate on why you think that would be a better choice?

Main issue is that setup.py install doesn't install the requirements. But there's more, e.g. see https://stackoverflow.com/a/15731459/21322.

In fact, the recommended syntax is python -m pip install . or python3 .... See https://docs.python.org/3/installing/index.html#installing-index
