Replying to [comment:15 jhpalmieri]:
> Note that if #19004 gets merged, then item 1 is no longer completely
true: to install an old-style package, I think you would have to download
it manually and then run `sage -i file.spkg`.
Then I don't like #19004...
My proposal is essentially to forget about `./sage -i` and use `make`
instead. Ordinary users should not run `./sage -i package`, they should
run `make package`. If they really know what they are doing, they can use
`./sage -i package`.
