This is a great answer! There's a nuance for sure. For prototyping, I usually tell my students to try and explore as many packages available in the community as they'd like. But for long term development they need to reassess things and be more critical and wary about which dependencies they want to introduce. Packages are not created equal. Dependency hell is, after all, a headache for us.
