Re^2: 'use' inside or outside of package declaration?

It does make sense to use some pragmas before the package statement in a module.

They may be few and far between, and require you to test that the positioning works as you'd want and expect it to, but such pragmas do exist.

And strict is one of them. Chosen through a process of applied rationality, in direct contrast with blanket imposition of dogma every bit as bad as that which you (rightly) rail against.

Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.

"Science is about questioning the status quo. Questioning authority".

In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice.
