I don’t think the PyPI parity rule needs to apply to the base package name, since this is primarily an application package and thus falls under the general naming guidelines[1]. You could make a case for renaming the python3-staplelib subpackage to python3-staple, adding the appropriate Obsoletes[2], and adding %py_provides python3-staplelib[3].

Thanks for the clarification. It makes sense. Although, I'm still having a hard time determining what the primary purpose of a package is when it provides both, an application and a library/module, which can be used by other Python packages.
