I must say I'm a little confused as to how we're going to make the
decisions here.

How about: attempt to reach consensus? David's concern on DLLs hasn't been addressed yet, nor has mine on packages being unavailable. I was actually still answering another of your emails, but I can't seem to reply fast enough.

I'm sure you agree that there's an opposite argument to be made, and I
would make it if I thought it would make a difference, but I'm losing
faith in my ability to keep the discussion on track, and I don't know
what to do about that.

I don't see the problem. Before you offered to put in work. Ondrej is willing to help, so is Christoph. So why is it impossible to do Scipy builds?

I can see us getting to a solution here, but offering Numpy installers without Scipy ones is not a solution in my book.
