Clearly you've never run across a package install or update that pulled in ~400 other dependencies: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=38511590

You're right about runtimes being a pain. I recall that time my Ruby install got hosed by something, I don't know what, that broke Jekyll. I never figured out what happened, and after spending a lot of a time trying to fix it, I gave up, installed Hugo, converted my sites, and never looked back.
