I think its just because putting a single `module` statement in a file
is good practice. Its a single line and makes you think about your
layout and structure.
Also, there is no global namespace in D, so it must create a module
level namespace for your file if you don't specify one. No matter what
The problem is that instead of using the fully qualified name, which is
guaranteed not to conflict with anything else, "it" chooses a simplified
one - just the basename.
Having to put a "module" statement in every module shouldn't be necessary
- flattening the namespace only saves you a few keystrokes in the rare
case when you need to explicitly access that module (because of
conflicting
symbols).

You cannot access that module through the shortened name only through the
import name.
The (implicit) module declaration affects only package membership and
mangling.
