In today's climate I would be extremely weary of npm installing any core bitcoin tech without a serious line by line audit of the source.
Why would this be more true of npm than any other package manager for any scripting language?
I would guess his paranoia is more general than directed at npm directly. However, it's a fair point that NPM allows anyone to push projects with no oversight, whereas many other package manager inventories are maintained and curated.
