Every language has a separate way of doing packages, explaining the individual benefit based on your preference is a more clear message to get across. The other benefit is it helps us choose where to focus. And, funny story: the word "weapon" is A/B tested with the word "repository" because I had the same doubts. Guess which one converts better? Hint: It's not "repository"

How do you define "convert"? Clicking one of the buttons? Signing up for the service? Paying money?

If converting is just clicking one of the buttons, I wonder if you get a lot of low quality converts -- i.e. ones that don't end up paying you money.
