It's feasible for tools to test this before upload. Flit does this. If anyone wants to adapt the code to use in other tools, it's here: https://github.com/takluyver/flit/blob/ca081197df229a0df07e98c6dece13e62e2bdcd1/flit/inifile.py#L63-L108 It's definitely useful to have a testing site based on the same code as PyPI, but I hope that with smarter tools, building invalid packages should be less common.
