Topic: components: core types inside module types

So a moduletype is a sequence of moduletype-defs and a moduletype-def is either a core type definition, an import, or an export. does this mean that the imports/exports moduletype-defs can only reference core function types that are also defined inside the same moduletype? that is, each moduletype has its own index space?

Yes, both module types and component types have their own index spaces.

And in the case of module types, they can only reference the func types declared within themselves

and component imports can only reference instance types within their own index space as well?
