_packages are awesome. npm is weird and hellish because people write single-function packages, but that isn't the case in other ecosystems_

I have no knowledge of how NuGet works but is there anything in NuGet that is stopping the developers from writing/using single line packages?

Technically, no, but the proliferation of those in the likes of the npm ecosystem is almost entirely due to the shittiness of the JS standard library (such as it is...)

. NET, however, has an excellent stdlib, so in practice you simply do not get packages like this.
