I could now go into lengths as of why I do not believe in proven 
correctness by construction, but that is probably too offtopic here ;)

What I see mostly is that all the problems you have now on a per class 
level, you later have on a per module level again... for example needing 
two versions of the same library being active at the same time... and 
the movement away from the static module descriptor to a dynamic module 
loading system with layers and all kinds of shenanigans that will bypass 
these efforts in the end again
