And there are scant few JavaScript libraries that let you choose what to take a la carte from them. The most extreme a la carte example I can think of is Lodash, which offers to let you pull each API function it offers as a separate CommonJS require! When you can go to those lengths, you show you care for your users and deservedly beat out the competition. JavaScript libraries need to do this more. Sure, it is important to offer the uber dependency by default for users that don't care, but the a la carte form has to be available if users like me only want to take bits and pieces.
