The ST is suboptimal among several axes. Its only real advantage is that it’s a single expression. I don’t know why people insist on using it in places where that’s of no benefit.

And no, none of the alternatives I use involve modules. Next time, try to argue without putting up a strawman and then adding a slippery slope to it.

Makeshifts last the longest.
