It is true that when I applied the scheme I described to my own code  
I inelegantly cut and pasted Bottom's type in Top's one.

It seems that although a compiled file a.ml defines a module named A,  
a compiled file a.mli doesn't define a module type A, strange  
asymmetry. Apparently an old feature wish about this is in the  
bugtracking system [1]. Maybe we should wish again ? The problem of  
the wish is that granting it could break existing code.
