The module path is not like the class path. The class path is chaos; the 
module path is order. Think of the module path as a repository that 
contains tens, hundreds, thousands of modules, all of which sit silently 
until one is required by some module, or resolved due to `--add-modules`.

You're asking the JDK team how to use the ORM core of Hibernate as an 
automatic module. What did the Hibernate team say what you asked them?
