Steve Dower <steve.do...@python.org> added the comment:

There are plenty of other ways to get a venv through a potentially unexpected 
path (turns out I've been doing one for years), which is why I went with the 
general warning rather than limiting it to specific behaviours that are subject 
to change outside of our control.

I'm not opposed to strengthening this check to ignore DOS encoded names, but I 
think it should remain for anything where the realised executable path isn't 
the same as what you'd assume from the requested path. Without being very aware 
of how your directories are all configured, it could be near impossible to 
diagnose, so the warning in the command-line tool is appropriate.
