I think these "build-less" projects mentioned in the issue are what we commonly call "applications". For example, a Django site that is not meant to be built as a package and distributed on PyPI. It's only meant to be deployed somewhere. When you install your deps, you don't want uv to also install the project itself, since it's not supposed to be installable. Simple as that! Just my guess.
