You can easily install python3-venv as a package. Why should it be installed by default, when many users will never use it?

- PaulHoule 4y agoBecause people are lazy and the right thing must be easier then the wrong thing. The main project in Python now (going well) is removing the footguns, and pip install —-user Is one of them. If users don’t have venv they will trash their Python installation almost right away and probably join the many people who’ve left Python.
