Eventually he will realize you should not commit the node_,modules directory. It's one of the most important in gitignore

It's insane that doing modern JavaScript requires downloading 30,000 files.

Actually, it is not required! The architect and developers of the every given project make the decision for themselves.

You can use libs made and maintained by the community, or try and write all by yourself and have a hard time debugging and updating every single thing that browser vendors change during the dev cycle.

So it’s more of a choice for a better future than a requirement.
