No, there's is a big difference between a snap and a part.

A snap is made of parts, but a part is not a whole snap.

We want parts to be an independent concept (much like the new "layers"
in charms) because they are points of collaboration between parties with
a common interest, that still let those parties reuse those shared bits
inside unique snaps.
