We should certainly consider internet speeds across the world in general, but I don't think it's that important to this particular discussion. In most cases, users who just want to install and use a package can get it as a wheel, so what we do with sdists doesn't matter to them. And there aren't many projects where adding tests and docs makes an order of magnitude difference to the archive size.
