rust has a lot of problems, but let me tell you: “micro libraries” isn’t one

splitting packages per concern is good for build performance, it’s good for review, it’s good for API evolution.

the problems are technical (compiler perf), financial (funding OSS), human etc.

@fasterthanlime It does seem to be that the people most eager to claim that modular dependency trees are a problem are those that primarily use languages that aggressively resist modularity. I wonder what that could mean?
