There’s no shame in refusing to study dependency diffs. If you consciously evaluate the risk and deem it acceptable, I agree with your judgement call.
What I find shameful is the lack of advisory warnings about this risk — by the repository, by the language’s community, by the teaching material.
This should have been a clearly-known risk. Instead, it was a surprise. The shame here falls on the NPM community as a whole failing to educate its users on the risks inherent in NPM, not the individual authors and users of NPM modules.
