I'm fully aware of how the ansible PyPI package is built. > Can we just fix the one thing right now? We have two things here: we have the ansible PyPI package, and we have Ansible as the 'thing' that users use. The new suggestion is perfect from a technical point of view, when talking about the ansible PyPI package. But it is NOT perfect when looking at Ansible, as described by the Ansible docsite (https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/) and the Ansible changelog (https://github.com/ansible-community/ansible-build-data/blob/main/8/CHANGELOG-v8.rst). I'm against changing something so that one aspect of it is better, but another gets worse, without this being properly discussed first.
