'Npm install thing' is easier than programming or even auditing imported code.
Too lazy to write, too cheap to pay for it, that's half of open source.
Now what's going to dominate stackoverflow answers, thoughtful articles on how to program? Or gratis npm/uv installable libraries that hide the actual solution details in between tests and polyfills and readmes, that end up just download another dependency while contributing enough lines of code so that the author can safely put it in their resume and grift over the oss ecosystem to get a cushy 300k/yr job at an extended faang where they are in charge of an ad pixel tracker or yet another one of those wallet things that are just an IO proxy for money but they get to keep some comission if they spend enough money on ads to convince someone to use the thing once and then it becomes their main neo(not) bank* forever.
*for regulatory reasons we must not call it a bank, but it's a bank
