I'm glad we have both Homebrew as well as MacPorts. It's like having options to choose a bleeding-edge or stable distro. I prefer the former (as a dev, who often wants to use reasonably new features and libraries - and honestly despite keeping up in versions I can count the breakage to my workflow in the past decade on one hand, at least I'm not a JavaScript developer) but I totally respect the latter as well, so I'm glad we can each have what we need.
