It's a pity to exclude namespaces, the advantage of breaking the

Yes, the advantage of namespace is obvious.
But, I think namespace is just a syntax sugar. You can name your
variables, functions, classes properly  to  "avoid" it.


All of OO is just syntactic sugar :-)
You can mimic anything in C, the point is that it obscures the
code, this kind of naming obscures the code, so it is better
avoided.
