I'm not sure why you would think a single namespace spanning multiple files is a "very small edge case". I disagree. Here are some libraries I am aware of *off the top of my head* that use functions the same namespace across multiple files: - https://github.com/nikic/iter - https://github.com/lstrojny/functional-php As well as several of my personal projects. I do not think this is a "very small edge case."
