I don't think that second consequence is entirely true.

As I understand the the default module stream remains available
in the main repo and hence would be installable with things that
don't understand modules. There would be no ability to switch to
an alternate stream with other tools though.

That's not true. If the modulemd isn't processed, all the RPMs are
evaluated and the repo looks like a completely conflicting pile of
nonsense. This is what makes PackageKit and dnfdragora scream. Though
they don't crash on it anymore, which is a good thing. :)

Not sure I follow... I don't see anything called modulemd in
the repodata and, for example, pkcon seems to be happy to install
ant on my rawhide vm.

As I understand it modulemd is something which goes in a distgit
repo to control how modules are built?

The fedora-modular repo has a modules.yaml.gz appended to it that is
used for shipping module information for package managers to process
for filtering rules.

Ahh I have the modular repo disabled, so that's all fine then ;-)
