I don't get what PEP 405 (Python Virtual Environments) brings vs what we already had in PEP 370 since Python 2.6.

Obviously 405 has a tool to create virtual environments, but that's trivial for PEP 370 [1], and has support for isolation from the system-wide site patch which could've been added in addition to PEP 370.

So maybe I'm missing something?


[1]
PYTHONUSERBASE=~/my-py-venv pip install --user Whatever
will create ~/my-py-venv and everything under it as needed

PYTHONUSERBASE=~/my-py-venv python setup.py install --user
the same without pip
