Not sure about that..
You mustn't have used CPAN much.
And if we try to pretend they are or cobble together a solution it's
very much like adding a turbo-charger to a lada-niva in an attempt
to come up with a competition rally car like a subaru-wrx.

CPAN == seriously good solution that's been working for years.
Even if you implement PyPI + PEP 381 + PEP 381 tomorrow I promise
you that you won't be anywhere close to CPAN.
It's a much more serious challenge than perphaps you realise..
