Doesn't this imply that if a program uses two different procedures
taking a `test` keyword, each procedure from a different library, then
the program has to rename one of the `test` keywords on import?

IIRC there were name clashes like this in Haskell and/or Elm due to
similar hygiene concerns. Maybe it was about record field names?
