My understanding is that Lodash started as a replacement for Underscore.js and was originally fairly monolithic. Only in the most recent version do they make it so that each function is separately requirable and published. They have modularized after starting monolithically (without verifying, I also think that Lodash develops in a single repository, but publishes a bunch of modules from that one repo).
