Yes, I would just go ahead and wouldn't worry too much about
additional modules being pulled-in which also need to be unloaded, in
case something really needs to unloaded.

We usually do not support module unloading during normal system
operation. It is mainly a nice and convenient debugging and developing
tool, which people who use it will figure out how to do it.
