I could be wrong, but I think he might mean that people should take care not to add too many dependencies to their project - if it's too easy, then it might result in unnecessary dependencies and brittle code.
However, I'm not sure I agree with the statement - you could use this tool and still have the discipline not to pull in random packages.
