Regular packages have __init__.py files and namespace packages do not.  "Implicit non-namespace packages" aren't really A Thing.

This design choice is deliberate; namespace packages themselves have no physical location so there's no place to put resources within them.  Is there a problem with adding empty __init__.py files to regular packages with resources?
