I wonder how long npm/pip etc even makes sense.

Dependancies introduce unnecessary LOC and features which are, more and more, just written by LLMs themselves. It is easier to just write the necessary functionality directly. Whether that is more maintainable or not is a bit YMMV at this stage, but I would wager it is improving.

As long as "don't roll your own crypto" is considered good advice, you'll have at least a few packages/libraries that'll need managing.

For a decent number of relatively pedestrian tasks though, I can see it.

LLMs are great at the roll you own crypto foot gun. They will tell you to remember all these things that are important, and then ignore their own tips.
