well, I've had fine luck with simply using file and a relative path to get files. Though I suppose that would fail with a zipped package -- is xarray zipsafe otherwise?

Also, I appreciate the goal here, but in this case, it's only two files, though the CSS is pretty big.

but in any case, you have something that works, and you'd be hard pressed to find a python install that doesn't have setuptools -- so I'd say bump the Install-requires version back to an old one, and you're done.

NOTE: I'm still feeling the scars from setuptools nightmares bundling stand-alone applications from 15 years ago -- so I still don't like to use it at run-time -- but yeah, probably not relevant anymore :-)

and maybe revisit when you're no longer supporting 3.6
