six is a special case, as it is provides compatibility for scripts running different versions of python. It is useful to be able to create 2 separate packages though, a python2 version, and a python3 version (with different package names), because you can have both installed at the same time. It would be hard to do that with only one package with options, unless the options changed the package name - which would then make it harder to manage with tools.
Tim, Yes. I forgot that six is different from other python tools.
