Node.js ecosystem makes things worse because of package number inflation due to a piss poor standard library (praise DENO).
But this isn't limited to Javascript. It has everything to do with Github as a social platform. Case point, the same petty drama happens in the Go community with frameworks like "Iris" and the vitriol around it. Github is a repo service yes, but also a social platform, that makes or undo careers and there is potential money involved now.

I’m admittedly pretty ignorant to software licenses but I’d imagine they can help in at least this scenario.
