Research direction
Start with the main distribution tutorial and review the referenced issue comment for context. Move the package_data and data_files discussion to an Additional Topic, while keeping the main tutorial focused on MANIFEST.in and include_package_data. Done means the tutorial no longer presents those options in its main flow and the moved guidance remains available.
