Use of PyPI as a generic storage platform for binaries

Playwright on PyPI is primarily a Python library though, not a Node.js runtime, just as how PyTorch is a Python library and not a CUDA driver.

So if you want to use this as your precedent, then your precedent dictates that go-to-wheel should be including a Python API that completely disguises the fact that there’s also native code present. If that makes sense, great! I suspect it doesn’t make sense, and certainly doesn’t align with the promotional material around it.
