> If the response to someone finding and using your work

That wasn't the issue and it's crazy how much people interpreted it as such. His issue is with how it was packaged with it. He want it to be exclusively distributed using PIP.

If you don't want to depends on PIP, well sure don't use it.

If that's what he wants then he should put it in the licence.

But then the problem would be that it probably could not be on PyPI, since by putting it to there you grant users the right to do stuff with source, including distribution.
