Yes it does, perhaps you misunderstand the answer? Let me rephrase: because it is faster to bundle in some circumstances, and in some circumstances significantly faster than any other possible optimizations. > Also, what you exposed shows that the bundling process that you're > currently using needs to be updated to take in consideration the > inclusion of namespaces in PHP. see my reply to your other message. You're wrong, it's not possible to reliably bundle files containing namespace/import statements as currently implemented. > > > 2) I was under the impression namespaces were introduced to > improve code > > maintainability.

Sorry, your last statement does not add anything to the debate but noise. We are discussing the multiple namespaces per file patch. If you'd like to discuss which programming language to use or talk about hypothetical programming techniques, try php-general or IRC.
