I didn't realize we were talking about node here, so I suppose you're right. I'm a noob at node. Which of course is ages old. Way older than any of those other technologies I've been using for the past 15 years or so. Sarcasm aside, I have to say I'm surprised at npm's best practices, but whatever. Personally, I'd rather not make my line count graph explode every time I add or remove a dependency. I still firmly believe that source control is not the only way to reliably vendor files.
