That's only because you're basically assured there will be conflicts inside any single project. Every time I install anything via npm I get a boatload of warnings about insecure dependencies, which are effectively impossible to fix without breaking the whole mountain of hacks.

There are good deployment stories out there. JS is not one of them.

That's not an issue with the package management though, that's an issue with the quality of the packages themselves. The JS ecosystem does have issues there. But the tooling itself is good.
