Description

e.g.,

error: Failed to install cpython-3.13.0-macos-aarch64-none
  Caused by: Executable already exists at `/Users/zb/.local/bin/python3` but is not managed by uv; use `--force` to replace it
error: Failed to install cpython-3.13.0-macos-aarch64-none
  Caused by: Executable already exists at `/Users/zb/.local/bin/python` but is not managed by uv; use `--force` to replace it

we show ~the same message twice. It'd be nice to group these.
