To clarify, my comment was with regard to the complementary discussions about _choice_ of repo types, rather than mono-repo and other post-choice issues. Possibly, part of such a discussion on choice of repo-type, could include the potential slippery slope between the different uses of sub-modules. I feel a lot of the difficult sub-module discussion are because we don't have a common terminology for the different (mental) models of sub-module use, their benefits and problems. -- Philip
