Explain to me the harm that is caused to users of pip when this particular set of platform information is sent to PyPI.

(In case you were going to say that it associates hardware platform details with IP addresses - which would have been my answer - know that PyPI doesn't record IPs: https://www.theregister.com/2023/05/27/pypi_ip_data_governme... )

Then give me your version of why it's not reasonable for the Python packaging community (who are the recipients of this data, it doesn't go to Astral) to want to collect aggregate numbers against those platform details.
