That's a really good point. Thanks for sharing. Drop in alternatives can be healthy and not that harmful. It's not like we are locked into two separate camps.
NPM and Yarn don't have this problem, since they are pretty much drop-in replacements for each other. As long as `yarn install` and `npm install` both get the job done equally well, picking one becomes a personal choice. Every project that adopts a standard package.json is a win for both NPM and Yarn. There doesn't need to be a loser in this case, and diversity is good.
