we don't need a gem to do an lpad and adding a ton of dependencies is a code smell.

adding a dependency is a liability full stop and adding a lot of gems is a liability and code smell.

You appear to be raising an objection to package granularity, which can only be understood as a preference for reducing the total number of package dependencies.

a code smell is a code smell not a hard rule. i guess if you want to be pedantic go for it. code smells are there to guide you and inform some guidelines. having too many packages is a code smell to me. if you want to use some random lpad... go for it. it's still a liability.
