I think that indeed you touch on 2 important cultural issues, first the entire 
"Worse is Better" discussion (started by Richard Gabriel), and second that IDE 
support is key for getting more advanced forms of modularity in use. In my 
experience, sadly, Traits support in Pharo has been less than ideal. In 2.0 it 
has improved though, so I am happy about that.
