I mean, in some sense you're right, but in another, the point is that it's not a regression.

True.

Also, I coud imagine Rust's type-system raises the bar of dependencies that can be mangaged before everything breaks down. So a lib with 100 deps in NPM isn't the same as a lib with 100 deps in Cargo.

If you lock to specific versions, I don't think it differs much.

Edit: I mean if you don't use ~ or ^ in your nose dependencies,. Just explicit versions.
