You're talking about a massively different scale of thing here, especially in terms of lifecycle and long term support guarantee.

You have a point there, but it was probably an exaggeration to give an example.

But talking about small things, and long term support. Remember when someone removed a package from npm and the (Node) world stopped for a second? Where is the long time support there and guarantee. But still, this is how all of it works. Take any language, build anything nontrivial, i bet you'll end up using libraries far less supported and much younger then PostgREST.
