NPM is the answer to the question: what would happen if everyone refused to use any idioms ever, and instead replace them all with packages?

God help you, if you import a JavaScript (or Rust) package today. Lest you fall in a gaping chasm of endless cascading dependencies.

It's not NPM's fault, it's developer's fault.

I would never in my right mind publish a one-line package, Python, Javascript, whatever.

And I would never add a one line package as dependency
