Or you could add a fetch polyfill with zero dependencies:

https://github.com/github/fetch/blob/master/package.json

And a Promises library with zero dependencies:

This is not as difficult as you're making it out to be.

It's still 2 dependencies in your project versus 1 dependency.

1 dependency that's 34.6KB minified. That's a lot more than the two separate dependencies, and besides, once you've gone to the trouble of adding a package.json to add one dependency, adding one more is a very small step.
