My (possibly incorrect) understanding is the modules, being a form of
container like Docker, would allow you to include say a library
version different than provided by the underlying Fedora installation.
So it would make it possible to say ship the latest Krita on all
versions of Fedora even if a library it requires version X of is at
X-1 on the previous Fedora release(s).

While this isn't so much an issue for any KDE sig maintained libraries
it could be an issue for other libraries.
