Subject: Re: [Caml-list] We need a rich standard library distributed with OCaml, really

As a thought experiment, consider each function being its own
component. That isn't really an idea beyond the pale, in my opinion.
So if that's the case, then why can't one component depend upon
another. The boundaries we assume are reasonable (everything in a
namespace or module or whatever) are completely arbitrary. So yes if
library X that is 4k relies on 50 other libs that are around 1MB each,
sure that is (perhaps, even there it is context sensitive) lame. But
1k + 2 other 1K libs, not so much. etc.
