Because symlinks solve all the pronlems of nesting and duplication while providing none that I can think of.

I've been using pnpm and rush in my projecrs, and going back to npm at my employer's every day is such a chore.

yarn1 used to have a global package cache (enabled by default), but now it's disabled, because many packages don't work if they are symlinked.
