  I remember being intrigued by this idea. I doubt it would work but it’s interesting to understand why. Seems the main hold up is that each function might have to point to other function as dependencies, so it’s not going to be linear but really a graph. And then you are immediately in the position of I like this code but I am user Log package N, but they use Log package M so I have to copy and edit. . Vs _ and how things are published and versioned is just implementation details.

    it’s eminently workable. it’s every “modern” package system, but at the finest absolute level of granularity.

      Wouldn't you end up with 50 "get an URL" functions for different types of concurrency frameworks, different retry strategies, different SSL implementations, etc.?
