Yeah that is the opposite take of recent posts that the Cargo/npm package dependence is way too heavy.

Saying we should rely on reusable modules is great and all, but that reusable code is going to be maintained by who now?

There's no sustainable pattern for this yet, most things are good graces of businesses or free time development, many become unmaintained over time- people who actually want to survive on developing and supporting reusable modules alone might actually be more rare than the unicorn devs.

I meant in programming in general, not specific to Rust or Cargo.
