I believe that it would have been much better if there only were namespaces. Would make vetting and trusting specific "publishers" much easier and safer.

Like the many bevy crates. Some official some not. I would like a @bevy namespace. Or one for tokio and so on.

Also unofficial crates or forks would be transparent and would not have to be renamed except for the namespace ofcourse.

I created tracing-proc-macros-ink because the official tracing developers have been namesquatting tracing-proc-macros for six years. I don't blame them but I am still annoyed. The system is just bad.
