"Other installers work without issue?"  Is this a comment about other installers for other versions on your machine?  Or a question about other people using the same binary on other machines?

Using the same python-3.7.0a4-amd64.exe binary, I successfully upgraded an existing 3.7.0a3 all-users installation in a custom C: directory on Win-10/64.  If I read the log correctly, you tried a single user installation in the standard location.

The first error indication I see in the log is this line:
MSI (s) (BC:04) [20:15:48:208]: Note: 1: 2205 2:  3: Error 

'Error 0x80070643' is a generic installation failure that can occur either during Windows update or 3rd party program installation.  I searched and one of the top hits was
  https://www.drivereasy.com/knowledge/fix-error-0x80070643-on-windows/
You could try the 3 generic suggestions under
  2) Fix the 0x80070643 error during a program installation
(The first is restart your machine, if you have not already.)
You could also run the system scan described in section '1)'.
