What the author mentions but doesn’t seem to allocate a lot of significance to is that in Go, modules are a level of organization higher up the hierarchy from packages. Rust has no such a higher level organizing unit. It’s only unit for both sharing dependencies and compiling files is a crate. So crates have to take on additional duties, such as specifying build instructions and dependencies.

Been years since I’ve done much Rust. Does this mean bumping dependency versions thus becomes a larger chore in a project?
