Yep, I'm feeling this right now. I was recently tasked with updating an internal node app that hadn't been touched in about 4 years and it's seriously one of the least fun things I've had to do in my nearly 10 year career. After hacking away at for it a couple weeks, I told my boss that it needs a ground-up rewrite.

The bazaar approach of Node and NPM has created an absolute hellscape to develop in.
