Hi Augusto, I'm not against keep on discussing that on the list and you
can Cc whoever you think is useful, I just tagged the bug as "notabug"
and closed it as it's just not an Emacs bug :)

AFAIU there's noting we can do here to fix that, opening a PR to MELPA
is just the right thing to do for the ecosystem.

BR
