I doubt it. I looked at Ubuntu, Fedora, Arch, and SUSE. They differ a bit 
but if you do manage to install something to the system site-packages 
you'll probably regret it. A couple of Ubuntu versions ago 'sudo pip3 
install' would whine but install the package globally. 

According the the PEP the distros have their own Python binaries that may 
be patched from what you get from the python.org download but the distros 
themselves use Python so uninstalling their stuff and installing from 
python.org probably would be a disaster.

Back around 2000 I switched from Red Hat Linux when their release not only 
broke gcc so it couldn't compile the kernel but their Python broke 
existing scripts.

I don't know what would happen if you installed 3.13 from python.org on 
Fedora's 3.14 box and used uv to switch them around. I wouldn't go earlier 
than 3.13 since I think that's when f-strings were added.
