In my experience OSGi is horrible and unwieldy. Avoiding its complexity for this job is good.

Modularization itself is complex. No matter if OSGi, Jigsaw or whatever, modularization done right is non trivial. I wonder when ppl. start realizing that instead of blaming it on implementations.

Modularisation isn't complex at all. We have had it for years with JARs. They are simple and easy to use for everyone involved.

Sure modules of this kind are a bit more complicated but they shouldn't be significantly so. Often the JCP tends to over-engineer and over-complicate.
