in that same vein, “nothing runs before main” is actually an extremely based take. i suppose this is another take informed by my python (mis-)adventures, but it is so unfortunate that you don’t have just a liiittle more flexibility in terms of the order that code, imports, etc. are evaluated. it is hard for me to give a concise answer as to why i felt this pain, but it is an idea that immediately feels like respite, and gives programmers more leverage / lattitude in making libraries / other code simpler and ergonomic.
