This on bmy 12.3 xfce work station artemis:~> pkg info -x ^python python37-3.7.14 python38-3.8.14 python39-3.9.14 All the different versions come from various libraries/applications having different requirements. All happily live together. I would think if you are developing for a standalone application having your development system use python directly would be better than running in an environment. I'm not exactly a python newbie but I have never been able to get environments to work. FreeBSD at any rate does not care how many versions you have, just invoke the one you want to use directly.
