And the significant difference is, of course, that Java doesn't use a
"compilation unit" for encapsulation - Java uses types (classes and
interfaces) for encapsulation.

And as a consequence, we can take code unchanged from different Java
compilation units, and put it in a single compilation unit without
changing meaning.

If we try to do that with the current proposal then we'll see "private"
things become visible where they weren't before.
