Yes, agreed, but that makes it all the more imperative that we find a good
way to report dependencies.
Using headers as the dependency metric isn't working. We need to figure
how to make a "library dependency" metric work.
We probably need a FAQ entry that explains why we often use fine grained
headers, and their advantages.
