On this subject, what is the actual difference between FRAMEWORK and IMPORT..?

I know the following:
- If I don't use anything every module will be imported
- If I use FRAMEWORK the specified module will be imported (and all other modules this module and its dependencies IMPORT)
- If I use only IMPORT I can import modules which is not usefull because they all are already imported because I did not use FRAMEWORK

Won't it be more clear that if I use 'FRAMEWORK' as a statement to tell the compiler only to IMPORT the modules I wish to IMPORT? Of course you need an extra IMPORT command but it'd be much more logical to me.

If I'm wrong, please tell :)
