Not supposed to be a judgemental question. Not every repo has to be a labor of love for sure. But how do you get to that place where there are 120 unused dependencies? I'm sure there are many different pathways where things get a bit out of control. People doing the equivalent of pip freeze? Or (too) many cooks?

Can this also detect low-hanging fruit like say, 5 instances where we can add some code and give up Lodash?

The constantly renamed titles and general witch hunt against clickbait is really annoying.
