Ask HN: Why would anyone still use Poetry now that uv exists?

I have been migrating some Python projects from Poetry to uv and the difference in speed is just crazy. I have seen as well several posts in which they do a side by side comparison confirming this.

Not only locally, but as well the deployment of my projects to Cloud Run.

So I am wondering, am I missing something here? Why are people still choosing Poetry for new projects?
