As a packager, this PEP is a bit silent on it's expectations about what
will happen with (for instance) Debian and Fedora packages for Python.
My familiarity is with Fedora, and on that platform, we ship .pyc and
.pyo files (using -O for the .pyo). Is it your expectation that such
platforms will still distribute -O only? Or also -OO? In my world, all
of the __pycache__ directories are owned by root.
