Yeah I understand what you mean. I have around ~12 projects, for different clients, that are just recent enough that I might need to access the environments. If that was one environment (forget some of them being stuck on 2.x) the number of damn dependencies would be monstrous! When I need to bring a partner onto the project, I can't give them a requirements file that's 5x what it should be! > I just never understood what all the fuss is about. It's to keep environments clean + easy to maintain. Virtual is probably a bad word for it. It isn't like Docker or a VM. I don't think too many Python projects that are not libraries support many versions, that isn't the point of virtualenv or conda anyway.
