That's not true. Remember that when you're importing into a
module
you're import all symbols from that module into the current
namespace.
With symbols in aggregates you're forced to qualify the symbol
with
the name of the scope it's located in. One exception is the
with()
statement, but that can only be used in limited contexts (and
is buggy
as hell anyway).
This is why fixing selective / renamed imports is so important.
Once those are polished I'd consider using plain import anywhere
but in quick scripts to be a bad style.
