Maybe a nitpick, but given that most other programming languages don't distinguish named vs default, it's probably not necessary. You can do all your programming where every module is something (like in Java) or where every module only has things (like in Python), but there's certainly value in being able to express one or the other in the same language. The downside is that the named/default distinction adds language complexity and learning curve, makes tooling support a little harder, and makes things like CommonJS interop more of a pain.
