Here's some numbers fetched from that data. 

928 projects w/ 2750 total versions have versions not installable
directly from PyPI.

721 projects w/ 2543 total versions have versions not installable
directly from PyPI if we don't consider the `dev` version.

This change would affect 2-3% of the projects on PyPI, and
just from scanning down the list it appears some of these
appear to merely be a forgotten upload and not a conscious
choice to not host their packages on PyPI (for example Django
has only 1 version not installable directly from PyPI).
