I agree. But such a change in package.el was impossible when the
pretest already started. It should, however, be a necessary feature
of package.el.

There's a lot of new turf here to be explored. I hope we get it done
in time for Emacs 30. But it wasn't a reasonable alternative for
Emacs 29, because this issue was raised too late, and I don't think it
would be TRT to delay Emacs 29.1 by another 6 months or so.
