I think it makes sense to "atomize" the modules down to their basic
function. In the "old" days, the 420 and 440 needed to have a
built-in mixer because there was no mixer module and hence no way to
get 3 oscillators into those filters. Now we have the 830, and Paul
has hinted at a 1U wide uMixer module. So there is no need to have a
mixer built into any modules now.
