Sure, but telling people to run "py -3.7" seems a lot easier than walking them through uninstalling and reinstalling Python, as you would have had to in the bad old days. It's reliable and consistent and doesn't depend of what's installed where or how it's configured. If you run "py -3.7 -m venv my_env", it just works, always, with no special context required.
Although I don't handle user support for Python packages, if I did, that would be my go-to approach.
