The arguments are directed past each other. Minimal selection breaks down when you ignore it and thereby allow known bugs to pile up. Maximal selection breaks down when you ignore it and thereby allow unknown, untracked dependencies to pile up. The answer for both is that version updating should trigger CI activity and then be automatically applied when tested. Dependency tools should be as strictly dumb as possible. This gap exists because dependency management tools blossomed and matured in a manual developer-at-a-keyboard context before the kind of automation that makes their clever bits less relevant or necessary.
