I don't understand why this wasn't imlediately obvious from the 
beginning of egg'ifying zope 3?

It was the first thing I thought about when I heard of things moving in 
that direction. Making software by releasing loosely coupled versions of 
  seperate projects sounds like the perfect recipe for disaster.

But I assumed I had just misunderstood how it was supposed to work.
