We shouldn't cater to ancient / broken tutorials and / or use cases that have always been "wrong" for all eternity, IMO. virtualenvs have existed in some shape or form for almost two decades (the venv module was added in Python 3.3 - in 2012!) - people should just use those. So I say "do it". If you make this a Change proposal, I'd vote +1 on it.
