Um.  This warning would indicate a bug in the code which will lead to
actual misbehavior in a future version of Python.  The __init__.py
warning would have indicated a deployment configuration which didn't
actually cause any misbehavior.

They aren't the same case at all, unless you think that all warnings
should be classed this way (a position I do not think is completely
unreasonable, but since you singled out the package warning by way of
comparison, I assume this is not the argument you are trying to make).
