The compiler forces you many other things. Still, I don't get what's the
problem with a large unit if it's really needed (and nothing like
abstract base classes or interfaces or type casts or ... helps). Stuff
closely depending on each other should end in the same unit. You even
cannot test a unit with external circular class references without the
other involved units. So why should the stuff be separated?
