Sounds idealistic and raises some questions.

Why? Who decides? Who stops someone from introducing a new package manager? Why should a person developing a package manager be “stopped”?

I don’t agree.

Devs could just provide a Dockerfile containing the build environment and a script. That would pair nicely with CI and automated builds. No need to restrict package managers. Also, flatpak exists.
