in reply to require, import, & barewords by way of constants

If you want the routines imported at compile time, why do you want to use require+import? Perl has use to import symbols at compile time for just that reason.

    I am aware of that; I did not want to import at compile time, only during run time.

    A constant, rather a usable sub without parentheses, it is not then when one goes from the document using use to code using require. OTOH, object reference use is just dandy of course.

    This is also a reminder to self yet again about constant|function-call-with-optional-parentheses usage.
