You haven't stated anything yet that sounds like an actual bug to me.

What about the dangerous & broken complaint?

Which I don't yet understand, let alone agree with. Simply asserting over and over that it's bad and dangerous doesn't help.

One thing that you particularly seem to be missing is that the distutils also ignore a Python module's source permissions -- whether they come from a tarball or not.
