In Pascal that is really common, since the files are the modules. You publish your library as one file, and the user can import it by the file name. I ran wc on FreePascal to search for some. There are a few, but not as many as I expected. 9k file, data structures for the compiler itself: https://gitlab.com/freepascal.org/fpc/source/-/blob/main/./c... 30k file: Pascal parser/scope resolver: https://gitlab.com/freepascal.org/fpc/source/-/blob/main/pac...
