You gave reason (and I agree with you) for why, on a service that
allows comments and/or ratings, that users might think less of a
project that chooses to be on the service but then chooses not to have
comments and/or ratings.

Thus, there's a good reason on such a system to *not* participate in the
service at all. A barrier to entry, on something that should be *the*
place to look for third-party Python packages.

To encourage as many third-party packages to register on PyPI, it seems
barriers like that should be removed.
