  1. The real issue is that the nodejs community and ecosystem are really bad at dependency management. The second issue is that nodejs lacks an official stable stdlib and so we have 50% of packages with array manipulation, another 30% for string/number manipulation and the last 20% may actually be useful. The amount of programmers that just "npm i <random package>" without checking how it's maintained, it's transitive dependencies or if it's even needed is staggering.
