* UNIX tools don't get updated every week.
* UNIX tools don't get deprecated and replaced every month.
* When UNIX tools do update, the updates don't carry a risk of adding shady code from new maintainers because the original author "got bored lol" and handed the repo over to the first person who asked.
* When UNIX tools do update, the updates don't introduce unvetted and undocumented code that will, for example, start displaying Christmas decorations in your UI on certain dates.
