Giacpy_sage provides C-bindings for Giac which is already a standard package. So making Giacpy_sage a standard package as well would allow to replace pexpect calls to Giac by C-calls, which is the overarching goal of #16688. Giac is currently used as fallback for symbolic integration where this change would be useful (see also #28913). In addition, Gröbner basis computations already use Giacpy_sage as alternative backend, so this would become more accessible if the package type is changed to standard.
