Michael Foord <mich...@voidspace.org.uk> added the comment:

The point is not for developers who are happy handling .tar.gz but users
of the distribution who don't have a way of handling them.

I prefer .tar.gz myself as well but I don't think the default
distribution format should be one that isn't natively supported by one
of the major platforms that Python runs on.
