I am obviously of a different opinion as I have been trying to understand your
point of view and the technical aspects that you are concerned. We are taking
all of your comments into consideration and are trying to address the issues
you have, it would be polite if you did the same with our concerns so we can
find an amicable common ground, instead of a silent treatment. Even being
explicit that you are not interested in further discussion is a better response
than no response.

Indeed, I am equally fine with either approach if the packager knows the
difference and potential issues between them. Using the package names gives you
better control of the upgrade path of the dependencies, e.g. if one of the
package gets converted to a compat package, that can often be forgotten.

I am not familiar enough with the differences to judge, but from the vast
change in test dependencies and support, I am leaning towards a yes. It does
not seem like a simple change of sources and this change seemingly circumvented
the package review process which as we can see here has uncovered quite a lot
of differences in the packaging process compared to the bundled one.
