The solution is very simple. Lock your versions in package.json. Everyone stays happy. The only thing to keep track is, is what version of NodeJS you are using. It will happily keep working for years!

Do I get a super long list of deprecated and warning messages? Yes, they are also meaningless. You can ignore them and just build the feature.

This is exactly my feelings throughout this thread. We have apps in prod that haven't been touched in years that don't break and handle average to high req/s. We add a line here or there as we need to for bug fixes but we don't have any dep problems randomly breaking the app.

Pin your deps and everything keeps working how you want.
