Substack's essay applies as much to this tool as it does to webpack:

Importantly, overloading require like this:

  var collections = require('npm:lodash-node/modern/collections');
  var $ = require('github:components/jquery');

... means that you can't publish this module to npm and have the require statements work as expected.
