This is a tangent. This thread is about removing obsolete packages.
Let’s not discuss moving packages each to their own module here. This
has been discussed elsewhere and it’s a can of worms (which is fine if
you’re a bird, but not so good if you want to close the can again).
If you’re interested in playing with this you can do this in a local
branch and see how it behaves and what drawbacks it has. But I don’t
think it’s a good use of our time discussing it (again).
