They definitely do *not*.

Module level sounds nice in theory, and *could* look fine.

I'd definitely love undo the export mess we have, but as it is now,
module level imports_granularity would be an *absolute nightmare* for
our code base, while for Item level it wouldn't matter, it would produce
the least friction with git merges.
