Don't forget that they have to actively fill the check list with
values. It's like a pre-flight check. The pilot and co-pilot could
just nod to each other and say "all good". Or they could have a
check-mark after a given list of items to check.

And that's what quality control is: You get a list of specs to check
and return in the checklist with your signature underneath. If the
bananas were rotten and you check-marked bananas as OK, you're
fired.

Whereas now you have the situation "What? pyo files are included now?
Why should I know, I read the guidelines 3 months ago ..."
