Thanks for that. I better understand Ben's question now, and it made
me realise that
https://packaging.python.org/guides/tool-recommendations/ is missing a
section on "Publishing platform" that explains the migration that is
currently in progress and covers what pypi.org currently handles
better than pypi.python.org (publishing), which should still use
pypi.python.org (downloading due to server bandwidth availability,
package management UI), and those where it doesn't matter much which
you use (browsing).

I've created a PR to add that here:
https://github.com/pypa/python-packaging-user-guide/pull/334

Cheers,
Nick.
