Comment:
Hi Bob, thanks for the ticket. I saw this on forum and was going to reply.
I don't think we want to describe the models module as a package, as it's
not intended to be distributed by itself.
That sense of "package" as "packaged for distribution" is clarified here:
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/5.2/intro/reusable-apps/#reusability-
matters
Given that startapp doesn't create any package metadata I'm wary of
adopting that "package" wording in additional places. In other words,
neither the models module nor the app needs to be a package.
