- dwild 7y agoWow you were quick to read and comment. I updated it before seeing your answer. Sure it depends, which is exactly the point that I meant. A package manager is a use case pretty large. You wouldn't have the same safety requirement over both shoes and cars, thus the same apply to software.

We have alcohol licenses for example, why not have the same with software?
