I don't see why upstream distfile services recommending a thing has to
do with this topic.

But I'm willing to be persuaded -- as soon as we also switch to their
recommendation that each and every python program in Gentoo is installed
in a virtualenv.

Also I did not say anything about "github", so I don't know where your
criticism comes from? Am I supposed to, I don't know, have a vendetta
against github copilot to the point where I don't trust github actions
to do CI? Seems farfetched to me.

It is *precisely* developers who, per my belief, should strictly refrain
from this eclass addition and refuse to believe that it makes any
statement about whether artifacts are compromised.
