Let me reiterate, I have no plans to *deprecate* `use_ok`. Even if I wanted to there are simply too many users to make deprecation worth while. It works fine if what you want is a runtime require + import + assert, and sometimes you want that. The problem is it's been overused and has come to replace a simple `use` in test scripts. To that end the question is whether to *discourage* its use in the documentation: to scale it back from "use this when you load a module" to "use this for some special cases".
+1 to discouraging use_ok
