Without ragging on developers that do this, I actually think it's a very serious problem. I frequent the #react irc channel a lot, and almost every beginner comes in with the same sentence: "I really like the way ___ does ___, where do I start?" (or some variation of)

If you're using the words "like" or "cool" to describe your latest dependency then that's a serious red flag. These libraries exist to solve problems, if you can't describe the problem you're trying to solve with one of them then you shouldn't be using it.
