Wow, that was... exhaustive. Thanks for that. :) One more question that I have, though...

The downside of course is that you then have import statements throughout your code, and they're often going to be duplicated throughout a module (or even within a function if you localize them far enough), because separate parts of the code then need their own local imports.
Apart from the aesthetic "clutter" of duplicate imports, will they also put additional strain on the compiler and/or affect the resulting binary? I mean, will the imports actually be compiled in several times?
