I'm arguing that allowing PyPI uploads of binary wheels for Linux will be actively harmful. The chance that hundreds of project maintainers can get the dance you are suggesting right is iffectively nil: it requires them to compile wheel only on some unspecified LCD platform which most of them will have no access to. Once uploaded, mis-built wheels will cause no end of pain for the hapless users who try to use them. conda *is* the right solution for distributing cross-platform binaries for the relatively small in number (but not importance) hard-to-build packages. > Instead of lecturing people about what is in your opinion > "intractable", how about you just shut up, if you don't have anything > constructive to contribute?
