I think that what bothers you with virtual environments is simply the name. A venv is literally just a directory with files in it. Most of the languages you mentioned actually use a very similar approach to installing dependencies, they just don't call it "virtual", they call it GOPATH, node_modules or something similar. As a developer working mostly with Python I am so glad to have way to install a dependency in a directory that won't break my OS and without having to use docker. I still use docker for lots of things, but not as a way to resolve issues that can be resolved by creating a new directory.
