iirc, they're a conceit of the 1984 Lynch dune, and while cool, aren't in any of the books.
Ok. I got the old movie and the original video game mixed up with proper lore. (I am just old. It's been more than a few years since I read the books and watched the original movie quite a few time. Sigh.)
yeah it was a cool bit from the movie - iirc Lynch couldn't figure out a way for paul's teaching the fremen the 'weirding way' not to look like desert kung fu, so they went that route. hence weirding modules.
