I don't think virtual environments are only a RPI requirement and that other platforms likely enforce it's requirement.Python is not quite Python on a pi5.
There is the complication of needing to use a VENV which does seem to trip an awful lot of people up.
And don't forget the python libraries that worked on all previous models of pi that don't work on the 5.
I'm thinking mainly of gpio. That trips lots of folks up too...
