While I may agree that the benefits are nothing earth-shattering, I think
we aren't yet in a position to judge the costs. Afterall, it has been
proposed that we provide module re-exports, which would make this largely
transparent to packages. I'd imagine that we would retain these for the
usual three releases and then drop them.
