Yep, this is a thing I push with my team all the time. Always vet your deps. In the long run is is WAY worth it. In the short run the cost is rather minimal unless you have devs that cannot actually deliver on the needs the dependency covers.

You say this off-handedly like its not a big deal. No single person or company understands all the dependencies from the app all the way down to the electricity. That's the real reason we use dependencies - for things that aren't core to our business, that we don't want to have to understand.

I guess I just assumed everyone understands that no team will have the ability to cover all your needs. So you actually need to judge when your team cant deliver, then pick the dependency to pull in.
