What is the*fascination* with splitting and renaming packages this
way?
No idea generally, but in the world of Python packaging,
the two cases I know (poetry, flit) were motivated by folks not wanting to pull
in full-blown package and environment management apps when they only want to
pip install something that uses it.
The split made a lot of sense.
core - PEP517 backend https://peps.python.org/pep-0517/
the rest - an app that let's you "manage" your project
Scenario:
- The developer uses the full app to create and develop the project.
- The user uses -core to build and install it.
(Obviously a developer is free to just use -core as well, if they like it. Many
upstream projects use flit-core only.)
