Two problems: - people would need to know how to effectively include dependencies in a way that allows them to be tree shaken, that's a fragile setup - polyfills often have quirks and extra behaviours (eg. the extra functions on early promise libraries come to mind ) that they start relying on, making the switch to build-in not so easy Also, how is this going to look over time with multiple ES versions? | ||

> people would need to know how to effectively include dependencies in a way that allows them to be tree shaken Is the need for tree-shaking not 100% a side-effect of dependency-mania? Does it not completely disappear once one has ones dependencies reduced to their absolute minimum? Maybe i'm misunderstanding what tree-shaking is really for. | ||
