[racket-users] Idiomatic Racket approach for handling collisions in library provides?

Hi, A newbie question about idiomatic Racket code: Suppose I wanted to create several numeric modules that all had their own interpretation of what addition means. If each of them uses a (provide ... + ...) form, the various "+" exports are going to collide in client modules that (require
