"Just write your own if you aren't happy" doesn't make my critique invalid. My problem is that this community, and thus the ecosystem, is repeating many mistakes, reinventing wheels, employing known bad software-engineering practices, or lacking any software-engineering practices at all. It is, in short, not learning from decades of work. It's not standing on shoulders of giants, it's cludging together wobbly ladders to race to the top. Even if "getting to the top first" is the primary goal, it's not the fastest way. But certainly not the most durable way. (To be clear: I have seen the JS (node) community doing the exact same, racing fast towards cliffs and walls, realizing this, throwing it all out, racing to another cliff and so on. And I see many areas in the Python community doing this too. Problems have been solved! For decades! Learn from these instead of repeating the entire train of failures to maybe finally solve the problems in your niche/language/platform/ecosystem)
