Indeed, this is a feature, not a bug. Lone pyc files are used by some people to provide "binary only" distributions of Python software (I'm not really saying it's a good idea, but some people rely on it).

As for symlinks, well... This would complicate the code quite a bit and I'm not sure there's really a point to warn about it.
