If coding is anything like image generation, everybody is getting the same output anyway, which means we are back to nearly standard libraries just that are being dynamically produced. I see your claim as a new version of security through obscurity. It is way easier to patch all variants of a product when you can identify their lineage as variance in the first place.

That’s not quite what I meant. The concern isn’t that dependency code will contain bugs or vulnerabilities directly. The concern is that introducing a dependency introduces a whole new supply chain, of which any link could become compromised. No new dependency, no new supply chain.
