Difference between sudo -H pip install and pip --user install

I am wondering what is the difference between those two commands (I feel they are identical):
sudo -H pip install <package>pip --user install <package>
More informations:
From the sudo manpage:
-H, --set-home
Request that the security policy set the HOME environment
variable to the home directory specified by the target user's
password database entry. Depending on the policy, this may be
the default behavior.
And the pip user guide: https://pip.pypa.io/en/stable/user_guide/
Related questions:
What is the difference between pip install and sudo pip install?
What is the purpose "pip install --user ..."? and
sudo pip install VS pip install --user
But neither of them talk about the sudo -H option or the precise difference bewteen the two.

This is not a duplicate. The other question has nothing about sudo in it.

sudo is short for 'superuser do'. It simply runs the command with root privileges, which may be useful if you are installing to a directory you normally wouldn't have access to.
However, in the examples you have given the two commands would function identically, as you don't need root privileges to pip install --user
