We could do the same for the > "source root" but that would mean adding yet another path to the system path. I'm afraid you've lost me there. Yes, we turn relative paths into absolute ones, but I don't see how that translates into adding less entries into sys.path. For each module that we import, we add `dirname(module_path)` to sys.path. If we import two modules from different directories, we will get two sys.path entries, even if the modules were specified as paths relative to the same directory. Canonicalizing the path to that directory will mean less entries.
