Add preference for NOT using Option Public in LotusScript Agents and Script Libraries

I would like a preference to NOT use Option Public in LotusScript Agents and Script Libraries. It forces the developer to make things that can be shared explicitly Public, and promotes thinking abou what should be Public and what should be Private.

A smaller Public interface has a smaller chance of becoming spaghetti code, which is hard to debuig and maintain.

    Do not use Option Public.

    If this is not specified, then all elements of the library will be Private by default. And then for public elements, you will need to explicitly specify Public Sub, Public Function, etc.

    I don't understand what is the problem?

    Agreed. Anyway, I never understood how Option Public can make sense for a LotusScript agent. AFAIK there is no way how agent code can be shared by any other design element.
