No issue in my point of view.
I agree with your reply.

Can you take a look at my proposal to see what you think about it?

Feature #12317: Name space of a module

I want a method to return the  name space of a module, something like:

~~~ruby
class A; module B; module C end end end

A::B::C.namespace => [A, A::B, A::B::C]
~~~

There is `nesting` method that is similar, but that only returns the lexical nesting information.

There are also some known hacks for this, converting the module to the string representation using `to_s` or `name`, and then splitting it by `::`. But that easily breaks if the module is anonymous, or is a singleton module. I would like a more robust, core method.
