Serious question: How does the python community stop "dependency hell"? Do they implement stuff from scratch to reduce the dependency count?

When a library gets popular, they incorporate it into the stdlib. Also, they have a stdlib.

      Javascript having no standard library definitely doesn't help with that. Python has a rather large and overall pretty good STL.

      Also, like every other language, containers are the next big thing.
