Hi Colin (2026.01.02_13:04:39_+0000)

I wonder if we should make some design changes to improve these.

We could change the layout that the pyproject plugin uses. e.g. separate 
test and install extractions of the wheels.

They would come with their own downstream breakage, of course, but it'd 
be for the better.
