The Reflect module is indeed stateless. And IIRC, module instances would be
frozen anyway.

I don't know the exact rules of module instance objects. Is it possible to
reify the same module as multiple distinct instance objects in the same
module loader context, or does the loader context cache a single instance
object per module?
