It's not about the environment. It's about what they actually *do*. In
my projects, tox runs linters, coverage checks and unit tests; setup.py
test only runs unit tests. This is a convenient separation because I
find it appropriate to run linters and coverage checks on commits/PRs
for upstream, but there is no point in running them on package builds.
I agree with everything you said. Taking what we have, ideally we should
convince upstreams to only run tests with default toxenv, not linters.
We also don't have a tox-standard to only run offline testes etc. Maybe one day...

Sigh. Always nice when people deprecate perfectly well-working
workflows out from underneath you. :/
Right. Two things to consider:
- the deprecation period will most likely last forever
- setup.py files will eventually disappear anyway
