Npm has had such a rocky marginal existence for so many years, getting bought out & passed around, getting random-ish backing & support to stay afloat. Now Microsoft owns Npm package repo & seems like a trustworthy-ish benevolent dictator & stable, but it's more than just ideologically gross to have all the tens of millions of eggs in one basket, it's a constraint on exploration & growth & trying other paths. I think simply being free to try for better is a necessary & obvious step for js. It's not puritanical at all, it's embracing a lost freedom, to improve & figure stuff out.
