I agree with this principal. In fact, with the advent of private
child packages, one can promote these little procedures to a next
level above the procedure in which they would have been nested and
leverage their visibility through private package specifications within
the same parent-child hierarchy. As you so carefully note in your
message, this does require some planning. In a large-scale development
effort, planning at this level of detail is often absent from the
process.
