> still don't understand why is that such a problem

Some reasons it's a problem:

- it's slows and disrupts the development process

- packages get abandoned very easily; not many packages are highly popular/active

- security audits are essentially impossible

> Of course, it means that you have to learn more

JavaScript takes this to an extreme. It literally takes daily effort to keep up.

> In any other ecosystem, pushing a pull request to any framework or library feels like something that you would do only after spending a couple of days of learning all the ropes of this codebase

So you prefer an ecosystem created by amateurs? After years of working with PHP and JavaScript, I don't.
