QUERY: editable install warning seems to contradict meson-python docs? #29490

@lucascolley

Description

@lucascolley

packages that depend on NumPy. Headers, entrypoints, and other such
things may not be available from an editable install.
says

Headers ... may not be available from an editable install.

However, the meson-python Editable installs docs page linked just above says:

An editable install exposes at least all the files that would be available in a regular installation.

wouldn't exposing at least all files imply exposing all headers? If so, does one of these pages need correcting?

@rgommers maybe you can help clear this up?
