??? I didn't say anybody using npm wants this. I'm saying npm had the wrong policy around deletion, that npm could have handled the situation differently, and also that Azer not knowing or caring about the effects of removing the package doesn't make him an asshole or even negligent (although it also doesn't mean he ISNT an asshole; that's a separate matter).
The point is that Azer didn't owe anybody anything; not even to know what he was doing. npm did.
That said, I'm glad the wake-up call came in such a relatively benign way.
