I do this with git packages too. Sometimes I rely on something and the author then makes a move to go to a version 2.0 and ruin what I liked about the ux/ui or how the functionality behaved. I have a few privately forked packages now where I bugfix certain components alongside the author, but keep other legacy components, and even add my own functionality and behavior to my own needs.
Of course, in a world of walled gardens versus git repos, none of this very powerful use of ideas and computation can be done. I can't go to the Apple app store and easily cobble together my own franken app from what I find there. It's like a step back for innovation for our species when we set up these stupid profit seeking moats and gardens.
