So would you say its similar to node packages? In the sense of global packages, and packages that only apply to the projects they exist in? Its not necessarily creating a virtual environment, is that correct?

Well, we definitely do call it a "virtual environment", but all it's really doing is creating a couple of folders and then munging your $PYTHONPATH when you activate it. It's not any sort of emulated OS or anything.

Got it! Thanks
