But to do that, you'd have to cut and paste the code into your
code. And whenever you do that, you're risking clashes of one sort or
another. We could have methods of the same name, or globals, or
classes, or whatever. I'm not sure I see why this particular issue is
worse.

Could you give an example of a problem that has occurred this way?
