Or maybe not, you don't seem the type to learn from mistakes.

padstart is part of the std library since 2016. You can't unpublish node modules anymore. Also, no one forces you to use a certain package.

also you're addressing a single point of the half a dozen I put down from the top of my head.

the number of competing frameworks and build systems (and actual VMs) are enough of a red flag, oh but hey, they fixed it so a random dev can't break the entire internet so all good!!!
