This project is expected only to be used through the REST API (provided by conda-store-server) or CLI (provided by conda-store). Currently, we have several Python functions implicitly "public facing", even though we don't expect users to use conda-store through a "Python API".
We can consider being explicit about the public API and moving everything else to a private space/directory (conventionally, prefixed with an underscore).
Value and/or benefit
Cleaner codebase and avoid any unintended usage/maintenance over the long-term.
Anything else?
We need to make sure this change is aligned with the backwards compatibility policy.
