Is his second point about compressed tag sets right? I would interpret "sorted, set" to disallow unsorted and duplicate tags.
- woodruffw 2y agoTwo aspects: 1. Sorted, set is a contraction in terms: `packaging` and other tooling have interpreted it to mean just "set," which implies unsorted. 2. The quoted language there isn't from the wheel filename definition itself (and isn't linked to it), so it's unclear whether it's intended to be normative. Similarly, "can" is weaker than "should."
