Rationale for dropping ModuleImport syntax?

IIUC, the motivation for dropping the form is that it's confusing to have
this other syntactic option which uses a different (contextual) keyword.

Well, we already have this:

    import "./foo";

which you can use when you want to load+execute but not import anything.
 Is that going away?  If not, then it makes sense to just add a renaming
clause:

    import "./foo" as foo;

Does that help with the confusion?
