It is much much simpler keeping all of a module's files in the same  
directory,
as manually installing and uninstalling modules would become a multi- 
step process.

that's wrong.

all packages (themes , modules, libraries (includes)) files will live  
in their own directories
in the install system.

To try and do anything else adds an incredible amount of complexity.

This is the difference between the OSX (.app directory) and Unix way  
of doing things.

The OSX way is far far simpler, and much much cleaner.
