Tried again and it returned a somewhat different (Python) error:

You have a missing python module try

sudo pip install cryptography --force-reinstall

So Laravel Forge apparently did something on their end that fixed the Python issues...but now I have a new issue. Trying to install LetsEncrypt SSL now results in this error:
