I think the conclusion is more that package definitions can still be maintained on git/GitHub but the package manager clients should probably rely on a cache/db/a more efficient intermediate layer.

Mostly to avoid downloading the whole repo/resolve deltas from the history for the few packages most applications tend to depend on. Especially in today's CI/CD World.
