But it does change the need for contracts.   At least LSARC, and I thought
PSARC as well, had accepted the precedent that Volatile interfaces were
similar to Consolidation Private, only needing contracts when consumed
outside the Consolidation, to avoid overwhelming the ARC's and engineers
with dozens of contracts between different parts of consolidations like
JDS, SFW, & X.
