When a venv is activated, only one Python interpreter is active - whichever one the venv was created with. Why would you want to invoke it with `pythonX.Y` when `python` would do? I don't think that this is something people generally do - this has never come up before AFAIK. What if you invoked it with the wrong values of X.Y?
