Just as a side note about the screenshot at the end. I think it's from this socket thing, but the supply chain security of a package that depends on literally anything on npm having a score of almost 50 really makes me think if that score is just artificially inflated on every other package. Can you even reach a score below 47?

Founder of socket here. npm has since unpublished the chunk packages that the 'everything' package depends on (or perhaps made them private), so those packages are no longer being taken into account in the package score.

You're right that a package that depends on literally everything would absolutely have a score of 0 in our system.
