That’s exactly how individual artifacts are (and were) on PyPI. This change isn’t to artifact immutability, it’s to releases (collections of artifacts)

Yeah, I think that's the difference. In Maven, the entire set of files which compose a release is immutable. You can't add to or remove from the set of files once you've published. You have to release a new version if you want to add anything.
