In big companies (in my experience), projects are owned and funded, or they don't really exist. In the case of a side project that doesn't get official support, there is a perfect response pre-made for this situation: "Why are you depending on an unsupported package?"

Yup I agree, working in a product team however one thing I will consider a red flag with projects is internal costings (i.e. having to "hire" devs from other teams for a certain dollar amount), however I understand the importance of getting other teams to "buy in"
