It works if User uses Bug twice

We can go deeper:

var topVar = 13;

module Bug {
  var inner = 7;

  module Bug {
    var innerinner = 3;
  }
}

Can be accessed via:

use Bug.Bug.Bug;
writeln(innerinner);

or

use Bug;
use Bug;
use Bug;
writeln(innerinner);

Technically, it's not a naming conflict, but it is confusing. I'm tempted to make it a warning instead of an error
