this whole notion of "activating" a venv really does cause more confusion and obfuscation than it solves. How?
Using it this way, without an "activate" step makes things plainer.
python3.11 -m venv .venv/
.venv/bin/python3 -m pip install --requirement etc/pip/requirement.txt
.venv/bin/python3 -m pip freeze > etc/pip/requirement3.11.txt
export PYTHONPATH=$(pwd)/src/python
venv/bin/python3 -m mycorp.myapp.main
