Because the notion of a "virtual environment" is inherently
non-obvious. Is it like a virtual machine (and if so, like
VMWare or like Java, both with virtual machines - doesn't
Python have a virtual machine already)? Is it like a virtual
host in Apache? I asked people, and even after explaining what
it is, it was not clear to them what it is good for. You really
need to have the problem that it solves, or else you can't
comprehend what it does. Please trust me on that.
