I think the point was that it's not different from Node.js - and thus not much of a benefit.

If it was more along the lines of "I want to use this array helper library, but it shouldn't have any permissions" then it would be a lot more useful, but right now if your Deno app needs any file or network access, then all of your dependencies get access too.

Yes, this was my point. It's only trivially better in practice since you'll have to open all the doors nearly all the time.

We have so many dependencies that really only need to work in-memory and have zero IO needs. That part is not solved in Deno at all.
