Not quite the same. It's a simple management tool which rewrites your imports to use the latest version from supported registries. Deno binary still handles all the resolution, fetching, caching and loading.

There are no plans to add such convenience in the binary because it would mean limiting places you can import from (cannot upgrade deps for unsupported registries). Deno binary will remain agnostic to where you import from.

Community will come up with something if it's a huge problem and settle eventually.
