Whether base packages are useful or not is really a side aspect of the PEP and my proposal.
It's not whether they're useful, it's whether they're required. Your proposal requires base packages, and for people who intend to use pure packages, this is NOT a feature: it's a bug.
Specifically, it introduces a large number of unnecessary, boilerplate dependencies to their package distribution strategy.
