hmm, but doesn't it just mean that ppl should extend the same `fit!` method rather the define their own?

The bigger issue for production in my experience is about packaging the right model with the right version. I don't think anyone has to do `module1.fit` everywhere, since `fit` would've likely come from the same source.

That solves both of your scenarios

No.

As described in the great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-parent comment, the problem I am describing is that of trying to combine models from multiple software authors. You may not have that problem. It may not be a common problem among Julia's academic user base. I do have that problem.

Thanks for reading.
