I feel the same way - the Python tag doesn't need to change, but the ABI tag does. For Windows, we (eventually) need some low-level sysconfig-supported way to get the ABI information in an analogous way to how it happens on POSIX: and because that's not currently there, distlib doesn't provide any ABI information on Windows other than "none".
