2/ Dynamic languages simply don't allow rigorous in the small, and that has great benefits in many ways.

3/ Breaking isolation boundaries makes the "sloppy in the small" leak into the large and eventually slow you down.

4/4 But if you have tiny isolation boundaries, you're just trying to recover "rigorous in the small", poor fit for dynlang.

@wycats that's pretty insightful. As long as you're thinking about these things, maybe offer a simple definition of dynamic languages? -
@isaac32767 I think the answer is tautologous from the rest of my statements. Function boundaries offer insufficient tools for rigor. -
@isaac32767 it's easy to say "YAGNI rigor", but I think what happens in reality is that larger isolation boundaries take their place. -
@isaac32767 And I think that's fine. Sloppiness can be correlated with productivity in the small!
