A mirror (myfullmirror) has several versions of a package (say the package is myxyzzy):
myxyzzy_1.tar.gz
myxyzzy_2.tar.gz
myxyzzy_3.tar.gz
myxyzzy_4.tar.gz
Set up PypiFacade just to mirror myfullmirror and pull the index for myxyzzy
Now, set up a second context that still points to myfullmirror (or somewhere else even), and constrain it to myxyzzy<3. The index will correctly only show 1 and 2 but you can still download 3 and 4. The test case test_startServerFromScratch starting at or around 1391 at the time of this writing that is commented out that will demonstrate this behavior.
