How is having all second party modules be global automatically a convenience? That sounds like the worst possible way second party modules could work.

Throwing away a package manager as great and as tried and tested as NPM, which could easily be used seems so counter-intuitive.

well its called "smart" package manager so perhaps the team believes NPM is a "dumb" package manager? But isn't a package manager suppose to be dumb? Sounds like over-engineering already :P
