Most would probably have 2 modules on the top - quite a lot to go at there.
Not going to happen! - I know, but it still makes sense and we can dream.

That would be nice, Tony...no doubt modules would be handy, but as friend Diki pointed out on another thread, the manufacturers have to allow their respective instruments (or modules) to talk to one another.
Sure, a Roland module will work best with a Roland controller, or arranger, and the same for Yamaha with Yamaha...it's when you mix 'em up that you get problems.
Roland got out of making them for a reason...not profitable? Too complicated for the average user?
Whatever it was, they dropped them cold turkey.
