I still don't know what you mean by "code flow". if statements, while statements, etc. mean what they mean and don't need further explaination except to the youngest novice: we know how program execution "flows".

My indenting is 3 spaces per level, which I think is a median value (2 to 4 is common, 8 rare but sometimes seen), and subordinate stuff is indented relative to the controlling line, which is also normal enough. So I don't know what you find "extremely odd".

I do find that it's easy to become lost, and I think that's because of the meta-ness involved. That is, function there actually generate the functions that are then called. And, the same mechanism that generates the export for the Module is the one that the Module subsequently uses to export its stuff to the Client, so thinking about "the module", "the symbol", etc. makes one forget which role one is in. I'm trying to overcome that by careful and consistent nominclature.
