Encapsulation anyone? If you pack related functionality into a single
module you don't have *any* means of enforcing encapsulation at the
language level. "private" becomes a pure convention. And if you use
modules to systematically enforce encapsulation you end up with Tango:
dozens of micro-modules which require either dozens of imports to use
them, or ugly collective import modules which require constant attention
and maintenance.
