I have a standalone script that grew and grew until reaching an unmaintainable
size. I was hoping to refactor it into a relatively small top-level script
plus a package containing a bunch of relatively small files.

Easier, yes. Correct, no:
from vars import foo
def bar():
global foo
foo += 1
return foo
which surprisingly (to me, anyway) changes a _copy_ of foo, not the foo I'd
think of as belonging to the example package:
>>> from example import foo, bar
>>> foo
123
>>> bar()
124
>>> foo
123

That kind of defeats my goal of splitting a single file into more maintainable
chunks.
