Does that really matter when you just run local? I assumed the entire package would be installed from the package repository and then only certain parts are loaded into memory depending on the import syntax? I guess if you're concerned about memory usage, maybe it's valuable. But it isn't like client-side JS where the code is shipped to a client across a network.
Appreciate the discussion, btw :)

Correct. It is about memory. Also using
from
allows for using less repetitive and less error-prone syntax.reply

in order to avoid importing too much, in the case of this app to avoid importing HOTP for example
