Description
on reflection if you're talking specifically about the environment in which poetry is installed by the installer - you could try raising a feature request in https://github.com/python-poetry/install.python-poetry.org
it seems plausible that this environment doesn't need setuptools at all, maybe the installer should always pass the --no-setuptools flag to virtualenv at environment creation

Research direction
Start by locating where the installer creates the environment in the installation script and review how it invokes virtualenv. Check whether the installer should always pass --no-setuptools or expose an option, then verify that the resulting Poetry installation environment is created without setuptools.
