Usually on Fedora it has just worked in the past.
But there are too many edge cases where pip installing a module can break 
system tools.
You would be unhappy if dnf broke.

What I do is create one venv that I put the tools I pip install into then 
symlink the tools into my ~/bin.

Proton and Wine are not python modules so the python venv is not involved.
