Also, the problem with big chain restaurants with a thousand things on the menu is not reading the menu, it's that none of it is very good. Much rather eat at a small restaurant with 5 things on the menu that are all excellent.

And the other problem is there are 23 kinds of bespoke artisanal ravioli and maybe it was handmade by a Michelin chef or maybe it's from a bootcamp graduate that spent two weeks learning how to blog, star things on pinterest, and require('can-of-chef-boyardee')

I don't think comparing an over abundance of JavaScript libraries with a big chain restaurant. It would be more like going to a huge open air market with hundreds of stalls each serving a few dishes. The dishes range from amazing to simply mediocre. You have simple three ingredient dishes to dishes that require weeks of preparation. Some are served modestly while other are delivered on a spinning plate by a server on roller skates singing the latest pop songs.

  The downside is that most of the stalls are serving dishes that depend on dishes from other stalls. So when the maker of 'left-pad-thai' tears down his stall without warning, everybody at the market starves for a while.

    no; everybody at the market gets food poisoning.

Yeah, except those five things have disgusting (to me at least) ingredients like seafood, mushrooms, kale, nuts, etc. so I go home hungry.
