I think you don't need to understand BEGIN to understand modules at a certain level. I think a useful lie is that use is just like require+->import(), and to postpone the discussion of BEGIN.

You can always gloss over that by saying that use must appear at the top of any code.

    Not in our case, we have self-written "modules" messing around.

    And colleagues who hacked 10+ years in Perl should be confronted with the concept.
