If we separate out twisted on principle, it seems like we should

That's a
maintenance burden I can't take on right now.

Are those heavily patched with respect to upstream?

None, including twisted, are patched with respect to upstream.

Why is there a maintenance burden for pieces of code which upstream
takes full care of?

The maintenance burden is in making and releasing a new spkg for every single upstream update if we split those off into separate spkgs, compared to the sagenb spkg automatically downloading and including necessary dependencies in itself.

Thanks,

Jason
