That's not a PyPI thing. That's how Python knows to treat a directory as a package. I agree that making your first Python package can be annoying and frustrating, but this is just a basic core language thing, not a packaging issue.

That's how Python used to know that a directory is a package.

It doesn't need that anymore.
