Yes, I agree with you - there will always be some level of trust involved in your package manager. I think having a better standard library is probably the first desired solution, followed by npm keeping all old versions of a module around even after unpublishing and also some kind of review process build management system magic as part of your code review process. It's all very easy to say of course and loads of people having been saying including small piece of code from your package manager is wrong. I'm saying it's not and giving reasons why. Trust your package manager or help make it trust worthy I guess.
