Eric V. Smith <e...@trueblade.com> added the comment:

Namespace packages (PEP 420) predate ModuleSpec (PEP 451). So, I think this 
probably happened when 451 was implemented. Maybe Eric Snow recalls?

I say this without having looked at it very deeply.

As to why the namespace package loader is a private class: it never occurred to 
me someone would care about inspecting it.
