Agreed. 'pip ...' not working is a recurring question on stackoverflow, usually from an IDLE user.  'python' is much rarer.  Note that IDLE's shell may be a beginner's only exposure to the word 'shell'.  The standard Windows shell is the Command Prompt console, so one has to say 'Command Prompt command'.  Would 'bash command' work elsewhere?
