I followed your advice in reviewing my patch.  Please find it attached.

In short:

+ The 'modus-operandi-theme' and 'modus-vivendi-theme' are in
  etc/themes.

  - Standard commands like 'load-theme' and 'enable-theme' work as
    intended.

  - Theme-level functions/commands, such as 'modus-themes-toggle' work
    as expected.

+ The other two files, 'modus-themes-core.el' and 'modus-themes.el' are
  placed under lisp/themes.

Note I tried to edit the texi file in light of bug#45141 and I think I
did everything right, but I cannot run that command locally---it is slow
and my hardware's temparature rises considerably.  Perhaps the texi file
needs to be edited further, in which case I am prepared to do whatever
is necessary (and apologies in advance for taking too much out of your
time).

* * *

On the "obfuscation" point I mentioned before: I expressed myself
poorly.  What I thought was that it would be difficult to study the
theme's code, but one upside (I think) of the aforementioned changes is
that M-x find-library now lists the files I placed in lisp/themes.
