I very much dislike this style, I think this kind of very
local use obfuscates the code, especially if you go so far
as to create blocks just for the purpose of including a use
clause. I would hate to see
declare
use Text_IO;
begin
Put (A);
Put (B);
Put_Line (C);
end;
I don't see that as helpful.
This does not mean of course that local use is always a bad
idea, but I am suspicious of any "religeon" in this area.
Better to have a completely non-religeous viewpoint, and
use whatever makes best sense in each particular situation.
