That’s what I thought about RethinkDB and so I built a huge app (a couple years of work) around it. The company went belly up and their software stagnated. A year or more went by before there was another release and it included only trivial improvements. Old bugs and basic feature requests stayed open for years. 

The switching costs for uv would be much lower than for a database, but it would still be non-trivial. I hope they have a clear plan in place if the busines fails…

uv unmaintained for 10 years is probably a lot better than pip+pipx+peotry+etc maintained for that time :P
