from developer instructions.

I'm not completely fluent with the Python toolset, but on my distros, pip and pip3 are distinct files, but with strictly the same contents. It feels like pip is the most generic script that would choose Python 2 if it is still installed, but Python 2's support has ended in 2020 (see releases), so it should not be in any up-to-date distro.

pip is not available on my macOS M2, and pip3 is. It might be the safer choice?

Didn't know that. I agree with you that it seems like a safer choice. Could you rebase your branch and add an entry in the CHANGELOG.md, please?

Like in the Changed section:

* Documentation: prefer `pip3` over `pip` to ensure it works everywhere
