Description
Is https://peps.python.org/pep-0518 specification superseded by https://packaging.python.org/en/latest/specifications/pyproject-toml/#declaring-build-system-dependencies-the-build-system-table ?
If so, there is no history of changes, e.g. removal of wheel from default PEP518 dependencies.

Compare PEP 518 with the current packaging.python.org pyproject.toml build-system table specification, starting with the linked sections and their version or change history. Confirm whether the newer specification supersedes PEP 518 and document notable changes such as removal of wheel from the default dependencies; done means the relationship and changes are recorded clearly.
