Right, in certain contexts (I would even say most contexts) it can be a problem. However, it's not obvious to me that this—a well-defined interface for injecting plugins that's specified by a library that functions as low-level infrastructure—is one of those contexts. |

If foo 1.1 takes a dep on Bar 1.2, and baz 2.3 takes a dep on Bar 1.4, both Bar contexts are tested with their respective libraries but forcing Bar to a particular global version can have problems and both versions of Bar are needed to have tested behavior.
Examples mentioned and OP change the global behavior vs proper dependency management.
