If I understand what you mean, yes, you can make an arrangement of modules
that satisfys the GBC spec input/output as a whol, even though they don't
individually. That's fine (like Rafe's "supermodule", for instance). But then
the individual parts (submodules) aren't compliant, and so you end up with
effectively one very big module. No problem, although significantly more
difficult to fit into a large, complex, and every-evolving GBC (probably one of
the reasons I keep trying to make smaller yet more flexible modules - they are
*much* easier to use come set-up day).
