Julia environments are stacked. That means that even when you activate another environment, everything that’s in your 1.6 environment is also available! So if you have `Revise` in your base environment you can simply do `using Revise`, even if you have another environment activated, and it will just work.

This has been the way Julia works for ages, so I don’t get why you’d think it’s impossible.
