It's not the application that looks into .local, it's Python. If you say
that a system-installed Python shouldn't look into ~/.local, then you've
just disabled that mechanism completely. If not then Python would
somehow have to distinguish between system-installed and user-installed
scripts. This isn't as easy as checking whether the path starts with
/usr/bin or whether it belongs to root. Tying into the system's package
manager doesn't look appealing to me (not to mention that it might be
unacceptably slow).
