Are you aware that you can use markdown in the description? You can just use the entire README there, seems fitting for this project

I don't know that, AFAIR PyPi used to support RST only in past (~2y ago). That was reason I migrated readmes from markdown to rst.

For example pytest-marker-bugzilla uses markdown and I see it is not rendered properly .
On other hand python-rrmngmnt uses RST too and it is rendered properly.
