Re: [RFC] DPT Policy: Canonise recommendation against PyPi-provided upstream source tarballs

File names on PyPI are write once. Once a specific file name has been used it can never be used again (even if the entire project was deleted and recreated). 

Projects can delete uploaded files (and as mentioned they can be yanked, but yanking is just extra metadata beside the file), but file content can never change, only be removed.
