It means means you end up with lots of
```
from package.component.foo_do import foo
from package.component.bar_do import bar
```
I have seen it worked around by reexporting
foo and bar from `component`

yes, I find i often in python I have modules that are really just one function (at least in their public API).
Because it makes sense for all that to be in one file.

Combined with explict imports and it makes quiet a complexity of import headers.

The problem is not bounds check or no bounds check

The problem is the two (or maybe 3,) compilation caches

I feel like VS-Code should display that information in a tool tip.
Maybe it normally does but in this case the package was currently too broken for it to analyse.
Not sure.
I know it must work that out for F12 to work, but that seemed broken too.

+ I am a bit disappointed in tooling right now.
The way I used to do it a lot is just opening the repl and being like
`which(Foo.bar)` and it will tell me the bar used in module Foo comes from Qux.

Fine to do occasionally.
Less fine if you have to do it for hundreds of methods due to unfamiliarity

Well no, due to alternative splicing 1 gene can make multiple different proteins.
Ok so many-many?

You're gonna hate this but ...
some proteins are actually formed of two seperate peptides that are produced by two seperate genes so...
You need to support AND requirements, not just OR...
