sniff - nobody recommended the change of group for the -devel package; Development/* was correct there

That's not what https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Package_group_guidelines#Development says

What does it say? Anyhow, my interpretation would be such that

for splinter as an abstract whole, Prod/Science/Math describes its purpose better than Dev/Lib/C - it's not just any C library, it's a math(!) library.
for splinter-devel however, Dev/Lib/C is more specific than Prod/Science/Math, and for python(3)-splinter, it should even be Development/Languages/Python, the reason being that this Math (sub)package is limited to being used by only C or Python respectively.
