​Sorry if this sounds obtuse but isn't that useless overspecialization?
They can just publish `numpy-mlk` and `numpy-​thatblas` or whatever on
PyPI, and that will even work better when it comes to dependencies. I mean,
if you build something for `numpy-mkl` then it wouldn't work on a
`numpy-otherblas` anyway right?
