Comment on Why do we need modules at all? (2011)

isn't this issue sortof analogous to the expansion/contraction of a language core?

Except in this case the core is user-generated and ever-expanding.

I bet there are a lot of issues in Java history that could predict possible bumps in the road for such a system (since it was essentially concurrently designed by a bunch of actors -- except in that case they were corporate entities)
