Packaging is not always wrong.  Maybe it was the right thing to do for unittest, maybe not.

This is an example that I personally find ill-justified. Particularly annoying is the fact that opening init.py gives you a list of relative imports and sends you to the next file for everything else. Having both main.py and main.py seems redundant. What were the benefits that justified unittest.py split?
