Difference Between a Package and a Module
----------------------------------------
Packages are actually implemented as [modules], so they share a lot of behavior and characteristics.
Packages are internally implemented as [modules], so they share a lot of behavior and characteristics.
The main difference is that a package loads under the _global_ namespace, while a module loads under its own
namespace alias specified in an [`import`] statement (see also [modules]).

A package is _static_ (i.e. pre-loaded into an [`Engine`]), while a module is _dynamic_ (i.e. loaded with
the `import` statement).
Functions in a package are _flattened_, meaning that functions from sub-modules must be pulled up to the root level.
In other words, there can be no sub-modules in a package, and everything should reside in one, flat namespace.
Only functions matter for a package. Constant variables registered in a package are ignored.
