That's hardly the only reason we leave packages out of "main".

Historically, we've also respected the wishes of the author, if the
author askes us not to distribute, even when the license would have
allowed us to distribute.

It's only polite.

And, of course, if the author(s) want us to distribute their software,
we're happy to work with them.
