Why flagged

The package vendors a prebuilt Python wheel from PyPI (pythonhosted.org), which is a trusted source; while the wheel is platform-specific and unverifiable at the source level, it is not obfuscated or executed remotely, and PyPI's integrity is well-maintained, making the risk low despite the lack of upstream source build.
