Namespace packages (PEP 420) predate ModuleSpec (PEP 451). So, I think this probably happened when 451 was implemented. Maybe Eric Snow recalls?

I say this without having looked at it very deeply.

As to why the namespace package loader is a private class: it never occurred to me someone would care about inspecting it.
