I don't think LEGOs are a good analogy here since they have a very well defined and consistent interface :)
But I have never found handling mlis by hand to get in the way of program evolution. If you take time in your interfaces program evolution should be more about plugging in functionality in unique ways not changing interfaces willy nilly.

Of course, especially if things are explored rather experimentally,
for example if there is a new field of topics, where the interface
is NOT clear in advance, starting with the mli-files might be rather
a show stopper.

be easier to handle.
This is exactly my case.
Also, I grow programs organically because it is fun and motivating.
It is like playing with LEGO.
