uhhh yes staying pinned to an old version forever solves some problems, but not other problems? article doesn't mention 'npm audit' and how there are cases where you want to encourage an upgrade

real long-term solve here is a code review community for widely-used public packages I suspect?

am not a huge blockchain fan but this is one thing that blockchain could conceivably do well, because reviews are public, need to be authenticated, exist as compact metadata that can fit on chain, and benefit from public reputation dynamics
