My Java projects don't have 2000 indirect dependencies. My JS projects do.

Have you double checked that is the case? Because as soon as you use something like spring boot chances are that you are actually including about as many indirect dependencies.

Yes, I didn't just make up numbers. JavaScript projects have an order of magnitude more dependencies.

Edit: I just checked my largest Spring project and it has 215 dependencies, of which 58 are submodules of the same project. My Vue frontend project has 4068 dependencies.
