Description
On pypi, the SDist of tensorflow-probability is not published. Only a binary artifact is published. Is there a reason for not publishing SDist (.tar.gz) along the bdist_wheel that is currently published?
If the package is not platform-dependent, then perhaps it is possible to publish sdist? If so, would it be possible to publish it for versions 0.15.0+ on PyPi?
Thank you!

Research direction
Start at the tensorflow-probability 0.15.0 page on PyPI and compare the published bdist_wheel with the absent .tar.gz SDist. Then trace the project's release and packaging entry point to determine whether versions 0.15.0 and later can publish source distributions; done means an SDist is available on PyPI alongside the wheel.
