One of the major issues with the npm (etc) ecosystem is, that people are breaking even across minor versions for no viable reason. Aka a function call has been changed and the author cannot explain to me why it is no longer backward compatible, other then 'it works for me'. It's their good right but I don't get it. Also, some packages are just 'done' besides the security fixes, but that doesn't give you kudos or vc money as people 'think the project is dead' if no updates for a week, so stuff gets changed and useless commits are done.
