that is what the --no-site-packages flag for venv is, by default it
tries to use the std python site-packages, basically just to not have
a zillion versions of everything, if you add the --no-site-packages
flag it will never check outside the venv.

As a personal note I don't use the above flag. I just made a rule, I
never install anything in the site-packages, the only things there are
setuptools and virtualenv, anything else I install system wide is with
the package manager, and I always run everything in venv, it eats a
lot of disk space but keep everything independent, just like a dev
environment should be, and since I use the same method for deployment
I have no issues.
