Wes, once again, please stop attempting to inject JSON-LD into every
metadata discussion we have on this list. We already know you like it.

However, despite being simpler than RDFa, JSON-LD is still
overengineered for our purposes, so we're not going to ask people to
go read the JSON-LD spec in order to understand any particular aspect
of our APIs or metadata formats.

If you'd like to set up a PyPI dataset in one of the semantic web
projects, then please feel free to do so, but adding that kind of
information to the upstream metadata isn't a priority, any more than
it's a priority to add native support for things like CPE [1] or SWID
[2].

Regards,
Nick.
