random thought

Question

< ancient vegetable 10556> < fast nail 55400> random thought about generalizing `exports` `packages` `provides` and visibility at least for the purposes of inference if we made `exports` `packages` all symbol level with wildcards rather than target or package level the way the way that `provides` are then perhaps our implementation of visibility could be symbol level as well that would make it very very similar to language level visibility
