are projects that drag in dozens of libraries, which then

This is the new "script kiddie" way to make open source. Just mashup
a bunch of libraries and bind them together with chewing gum and
bailing wire.
Yes, It's abhorrent. Someday, maybe, hopefully, those kids will
grow up.
Like most things in the world, you get what you pay
for with open source.
This is, of course, a load of bull. I could claim that every piece
of software ever released by Microsoft sucks just because Windows sucks,
but that wouldn't be true either.
But then I suppose I've failed the simple fact that We Have Been
Trolled. ;)
