I have news:

It fails for python too. Using the same files as before and this block:

#+begin_src python 
import pandas as pd
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
#+end_src

It finds matplotlib, but fails to find pandas. I tried the same trick as before 
(but with the python executable, no psql), added the line

    (org-babel-python-command . ".direnv/.guix-profile/bin/python3")

but is not working. 

But if I am in shell, or in a python buffer or in a inferior-python process 
Emacs is finding all the libraries and executables.

So, I am assumming that the problem lies in how org-babel searchs the path ...

Answers to your questions below:

Yes

Didn't try, Will do later

Yes

No

Is empty when I am not in a direnv controlled directory, the correct path when 
I enter to those directories.

Yes, also works in vterm
