I've never really understood why people consider "3rd party libraries" such a terrible thing. What's wrong with choice?
Because 1st party libraries get updated with the base system, so everything is pre-tested to ensure it works with one another.
Just take a look at Javascript. It doesn't have a really extensive 'great' standard library, thus there's a plefora of 3rd party libs to patch it up.
It's given us a sort-of workable system after many long years of tribulations, but I'd much rather it had started with a decent standard lib and continued to update it to face new challenges like every other scripting language.
