It remains relevant to programming language choice because the "best in class" libraries in Rust often have lots of dependencies, thanks to Rust culture and cargo's design.
I'd like to be able to pick a few libraries without incurring a huge ongoing audit burden. If I have to exclude many popular libraries because they have oodles of dependencies, that both makes searching more laborious and limits my choices.
