I also find the opposite.

Using a unit in a uses clause defines the scope of the usage. I think 
the overriding principle should be to limit the scope to only the code 
that requires it. Using a unit in the implementation section adds 
valuable info to the reader that the used unit is NOT needed to define 
the current unit's interface.
