> PEP420 makes __init__.py files optional This is almost wrong. PEP 420 added a new way for "namespace pacakge." PEP 420 doesn't make empty __init__.py file in regular package. (See https://dev.to/methane/don-t-omit-init-py-3hga) Then, should pkgutil.walk_packages walk into all directories (e.g. node_modules) ? I don't think so.
