Both pnpm and Yarn are independent projects maintained by the community. I personally think that these are better projects than npm CLI because they can make their own decisions. Not decisions dictated by business needs of a company.
I was OK to merge pnpm into npm in the past. They have never suggested me this opportunity. Instead, they decided to re-implement pnpm's algorithm into npm and call it "isolated mode".
