"Opaque codeball" is a very large category. Are you saying you won't use any 3rd-party libraries at all?

Open-source libraries aren’t opaque. Third-party web APIs are. The latter should only be used if they are non-critical, easily replaceable, or contractually bound to sufficient assurances.

Almost none, but “at all” is also a very large category.
