I think we've proven that this is a better way to handle these types
of things so I would prefer option #1. I would say that it might be
useful to also create a basic cookiecutter template for these repos so
we can quickly bootstrap new ones. One thing that has a been a
repeated problem when you do split these modules is having to do bulk
updates for requirements or shared structure items and making sure we
don't accrue a ton of tech-debt over time.
