Arguably, your claim that using your main Python interpreter for everything "almost never" causes you problems would imply that there's no real *need* for fixes and improvements to handle that situation, so work on supporting virtual environments helps people who prefer them, and harms no-one. I suspect the truth is somewhere between the two.
