Sorry I could have added more detailed use cases, so I'll append them here:

The use case for venv in this particular script is that it's written to also work outside of CI, so it doesn't assume it runs in a "clean" python like this. And I would rather have the exact same process run in CI than outside without too much unnecessary differences like avoiding venv use specifically

Another use case for use of venv in CI is the python-for-android project I contribute to, which uses it for cross compilation and similar and for testing inside CI, will also require venv. Currently I don't think it works on Windows due to some hardcoded Unix tool paths, but there are plans to port it and then this would also be an issue
