Do you mind helping me to understand which scenario it breaks? I understand that this has changed just curious why we need a wheel in the first place for this specific package.

It's just better for the ecosystem to publish wheels.

When you provide only an sdist, the way python works is everyone who installs the package must build the wheel themselves.

That's slower, and might conceivably go wrong.

Better for the publisher to build a wheel once, rather than require every user to do it
