I think it's annoying but also toxic to an ecosystem. You have to name your packages the same way you look for a domain name, people can squat on names, and it causes drama like how the 'kik' package was stolen from a developer and given to a company who never used it. Nobody would've cared it the package was "tzs/kik". For example, the Elm package system does this right. Another example of this failure is the Reddit subreddit system where a subreddit like /r/bitcoin makes it seem like the authority when it's a carefully moderated and biased subreddit. And nobody can really compete with it without getting a worse subreddit name like truebitcoin and bitcoin2 or something. Would be much more clear if it was /r/@theymos/bitcoin and /r/@spez/politics.
