The problem is that those fame-chaser maintainers aren't the only ones doing it. Babel does it. Webpack does. ESLint does it. Before them others did.

If we ban those, we'd have to ban Babel and Webpack too... Oh now, wait a minute, now that actually sounds interesting...

Wow. You must be a special kind of stupid?

What if we focused on fixing all the problems, and not just retreating thinking that "we can't solve this problem, because there are so many other problems related to it"?

Your thinking is literally the definition of the problem.
