There is a parallel discussion going on, with the title "Using Wheel with

which is relevant to this question, and other questions you raised (e.g. about
supporting C extensions/pure-Python modules.

A lot of Python users depend on C extensions - and while it is a subset of all 
Python
users, it is a large (and important) subset. Example: any usage of Python in
numerical analysis or scientific applications involves use of C extensions.
