FWIW, I've had issues with environment variables in that they affect every version of Python running on a system and seem to defy isolation.  So, if one application needs the environment variable set, it will affect every application, even if it wants to keeps its contents private and not leak outside of a virtual environment.

Can your needs be met with just CLI flag rather than a system-wide environment variable?
