No, the problem is not to use a namespace. The problem is I want to organize related functions as a group. Namespace is just one way to do it. There are other ways. Package, class, namespace, or module serve the same function in term of organizing functions. What are the bunch of baggage and implication to use class as a way to organize functions? I don't see the difference in usage you mentioned with Python module. Putting a bunch of "top-level" methods in a module is the same as putting a bunch of static methods in a class.
