I actually find that kind of ironic, because that's pretty much how I feel 
about tango's ultra-separation-mania. I use tango all the time and I still 
can't do a single IO operation without spending at least ten minutes hunting 
blindly through the docs and finally finding what I need (including the 
necessary documentation) is spread out across at least three different 
modules.
