A few other reasons that were not mentioned previously:

- In 2.4, we can’t run “-m distutils2.run”, but a pysetup2.4 script works

- It’s nice for users to have something shorter than “python3.3 -m
packaging.run run sdist” (I like to take “make” as the ideal goal)

- It sends a message that we care about packaging (personal opinion)
