What's so bad about Python's virtualenv? It's a good way to have an LKGC (Last Known Good Configuration). When a CVE happens, you spin up a new venv and do smoke test, canary test, blue/green deployment, and so on.

If the update breaks things, you go back to the old venv. If the update goes well, then you just delete the old venv.

Not implementing security updates the right way is just human laziness and has nothing to do with the language in use.
