I'm no node developer, but even with ~100 packages in a Python project it was really rare to see "version mismatch problems". There's probably a lot of talk about it because "just install newest spec'd version recursively" is not technically correct and can violate package version constraints, and it's also probably the only algorithmic thing you can put in a package manager, and optimal solutions are of course NP-hard, making it an interesting thing to work on. But practical impact? Far down the list.
