Seems like one is backpedaling because one was just talking about one's separation of one's concerns and now one is defending one's separation of concerns with respect to one's global data structure.

I still firmly believe that one ctx object and hundred functions/methods is as bad as programming with plain variables defined in the global scope. If the ctx is composed from smaller data structures with whom the functions are defined, then all is good. This is the opposite of the rule.

		But why? You keep saying you believe it, but that is literally what a database is, game state manipulation, string manipulation, iterator algorithms, list comprehensions, range algorithms, image manipulations, etc. These are all instances where you use the same data structures over and over with as many algorithms and functions and you need.
