This is probably the worst security problem ever in the JS ecosystem. Any npm package could be corrupted, and we wouldn't even know it if the original maintainers don't pay attention to new releases anymore. Still some people argu

Well, didn't we just experience two major npm published packages containing malware? Both had CVEs. Now we have the probable root cause, buried in a wall of text. No CVE.

Most of the time managers are trying to be helpful, and most of the time they do in fact understand quite a lot of the background of a project. I'd suggest to try to see the situation from their perspective, which you maybe already did

Quite often "technical debt" from an engineer perspective is an asset from the leadership perspective. Make of it what you want, but code which is bad from a customer perspective usually doesn't live until it's legacy. A

And after that, Elon would be broke. Tesla would be sold to Apple. SpaceX would be terminated, not enough margin. 50 years forward: an unexpected comet hits earth, kills billions. But today, a few million get food. My point is: if there was
