Well, containers are currently the only "supported" way to have parallel 
installation of any Fedora packages. In essence, we don't have a solution for 
parallel installation at all. If Modules are supposed to go with containers, 
why not tack them onto Silverblue instead of the main distro? From what I've 
read, it seems they would fit that usecase much better than a traditional 
distribution, and we wouldn't need to address the issues that come from 
modules overriding non-modular packages.
