We use them in the pyvenv solution (and soon in the virtualenv
de-policy-violating solution) because they're the best way (IMHO) of solving
the technical implementation details with devendorizing pip and virtualenv and
their recursive dependencies.  That's why for example, we *don't* use wheels
to devendorize requests or urllib3 when used as a module, but we do use them
in pip within the virtual environment.
