Perhaps. I notice that the page you refer to does *not* define
the term "distribution", but "module distribution". I also notice
that PyPI is not an index for these (i.e. .tar.gz or whatever
files containing Python modules). Instead, in *indexes* Python
projects (as Richard calls them, and I think quite correctly
so). Each project then may have multiple _releases_, and each
of them may refer to distributions (but not only so, it
also refers to a home page, an author, a description, Trove
classifiers, etc).

FWIW, the distutils terminology would make it "PyMDI" :-)
