My bad I thought it was in 5.20 but upon further investigation it was
indeed not included like you said.

Thats fair and makes sense. Could python3-pip be included or would it
cause issues with build or other dependencies or security?

There are many open-source intelligence (OSINT) tools that you can
install with pip.

There also may be different privacy tools that you can install with pip
that are not in apt or included with tails.
A guide could be added to advanced topics for these use cases
https://tails.net/doc/advanced_topics/python_packages
* Example:
Start Tails with an administration password
Open root terminal under Applications -> System Tools -> Root Terminal
Update and install pip
apt update
apt install python3-pip -y
Create pip.conf file to use tor
mkdir -p ~/.config/pip/
echo '[global]
proxy = socks5h:127.0.0.1:9050' >> ~/.config/pip/pip.conf
Copy pip.conf to dotfiles
mkdir -p /live/persistence/TailsData_unlocked/dotfiles/.config/pip
cp /home/amnesia/.config/pip/pip.conf
/live/persistence/TailsData_unlocked/dotfiles/.config/pip/
Add python packages folders to persistence.conf for persistence
echo '/home/amnesia/.local/lib source=python-packages' \ >>
/live/persistence/TailsData_unlocked/persistence.conf
echo '/home/amnesia/.local/bin source=local/bin' \ >>
/live/persistence/TailsData_unlocked/persistence.conf
echo '/home/amnesia/.cache/pip source=pip-cache' \ >>
/live/persistence/TailsData_unlocked/persistence.conf
Reboot tails and install the pip packages you want :)
