I don't understand what you mean by **PyPI** including version
strings. PyPI just publishes the data the module contains. Do you mean
the packaging documentation, or PyPA, or something?

We don't dictate how projects choose their versioning scheme. Some use
semver, others don't, it's a project choice. And PEP 440 versions are
explicitly designed to support non-semver versioning schemes like
calver, so I don't even see how PEP 440 versions would encourage use
of semver anyway.
