But sending a separate attachment also makes things more modular, as it
allows using the exact same abstraction collection over several different
patches. As those object-classes (abstractions) become more familiar, they
become something that doesn't have to be relearned per-project and it
becomes a common vocabulary across projects.
It's two different kinds of modularity.
