    44No, it doesn't block it, but there are several warnings. However when installing through the wp.org API there is quite a bit more info about the theme/plugin. As far as I remember installation is not blocked for "historical reasons", i.e. to support super old plugins that still work despite not being updated for a long time, even before installing plugins from WP Admin was possible. If we were to add this now, I'd think installing would be blocked when something is marked incompatible :)
