we may have 'missed' each other by a mark, allow me to redefine
the rool more verbosely

        let a = you are writing an application
        let b = the need for a package declaration makes sense here

        if ( a AND b)
        then
                that which follows the package assertion needs to be in a
                perl module appropriately built with h2xs in compliance
                with being CPAN style ready.

If on the other hand one is already into the evil art of writing
perl modules - then clearly one already groks the idea of using
package declarations inside of a package so as to sub class.

If You are cutting perl modules and do not grok packages -
one really should seek therapy for this problem.
