Antoine Pitrou: " Who volunteers to support it?  It's a PITA to maintain the configure script and setup.py, and adding options only makes it more painful.  This kind of niche features needs some dedicated maintainer so that other core developers don't have to bother with it."

Oh, I forgot to put more context in my previous comment.

Xavier de Gaye opened the issue #27640 "add the '--disable-test-suite' option to configure". He is a core developer working on porting CPython to Android. Xavier is the requested dedicated maintainer ;-)
