Are there contemporary programming languages that do NOT have the ability to import functions or values or whatever from other files? Are there situations in which that would be a feature?

Not a language per se, but subsets of languages used for fantasy consoles usually do not implement import functionality. TIC-80, PICO-8, etc. etc. WIKI I wouldn't call that a feature, but it drives you to write less and more space-optimized code.
Now that I think about it, source code size could be a feature in itself, look at codeGolf-oriented esolangs:

Pyth
CJam
GolfScript
Microscript/Microscript II
Seriously
Rotor
Minkolang
Gaia
Jelly
05AB1E
japt
and more...

Are there contemporary programming languages that do *NOT* have the ability to import functions or values or whatever from other files? Are there situations in which that would be a feature?
