"Suppose it's all true, and you walk up to the pearly gates, and are
confronted by God," Bryne asked on his show The Meaning of Life. "What
will Stephen Fry say to him, her, or it?"
"I'd say, bone cancer in children? What's that about?" Fry replied.
"How dare you? How dare you create a world to which there is such misery
that is not our fault. It's not right, it's utterly, utterly evil."
"Why should I respect a capricious, mean-minded, stupid God who creates
a world that is so full of injustice and pain. That's what I would say."

I thought I read this in one of the modules papers/proposals that it
was not expected that modules are something you ship. Currently there
is no compatibility for binary products of compilers between
compilers. Where such binary compatibility exists, it is not due to
any wording in the standard, but due to the compiler team providing
the compatibility explicitly as a goal (e.g. clang's ability to link
against libraries producted by MSVC).
 
I don't see how modules are going to be any different in this regard.
Why would you expect to be able to share compiled modules between
compilers when you typically can't share object files?

This is completely unrelated feature to sharing modules between
compilers. I would expect that over time compiled modules would be a
place where innovation occurs to increase the compile speed of using
modules. If module binary formats or interchange are mandated, then
the opportunity for innovation likely disappears.
