Not for everyone.
Some people read the uses sections only to find out what is needed to
compile the unit.

What about class private members? You don't need them to understand the
interface, but you might need some extra units for them.

Apparently I'm too stupid to understand the gain of the
readability of uses section separation, but I know the trouble with
FPC.
