well... software engineering history would say otherwise. Where a
concept is needed you have two choices:
* A) mix it in with the languages & architectural layers you already
have
* B) create a dedicated layer or component type, and possibly
dedicated formalism if needed
A) represents the history of large scale systems built in the 60s, 70s
and 80s - unmaintainable spaghetti. B), if done right is always better.
