Python compiler infects "immutable" bundle - how to avoid it?

[Dr Eberhard Lisse]

On Catalina (10.15.3) /usr/bin/python is symlinged to
/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/bin/python2.7

Python (3 and/or 2) on the Mac is easily installed via Homebrew (i nto
/usr/local)

So is LyX (as what is called a Cask), and within Homebrew that could
lead to a dependency being defined so that if LyX is to be installed
Python must also be.
