PHP's Composer does this properly, so it's surprising that NPM doesn't.

Not really. Nobody would need private modules if it did, and they need some monetization strategy.

I would say tying language's main package installer capability to monetary need of the company hurts how I will node/npm as a stable platform.

Imagine if RubyGem/PythonPackage/NuGet goes with this stragtegy.
