This is the entire point of build backends, and is no longer true/hasn’t been true for several years. Build backends are not perfect, but they are the reason you can run `uv add` or `pip install` and get a functional wheel from an sdist on PyPI regardless of whether the sdist contains Python, C++, Rust, or anything else.
(This is now the second time you’ve imputed dishonesty in a conversation where I’ve tried to be helpful. So this will be my last response.)
