The disadvantage of `import`/`export` is that you lose the module names. For example you could do: include std/prelude echo times.fromUnix(0) Run
But if it changed to `import common` you'd have to write this instead: import std/common echo common.fromUnix(0) Run Admittedly this wouldn't be much of a problem for the stdlib where qualifying with the module name is almost never used, but it's why I use include for my own project's "prelude".
