I read the first part of your comment and thought "okay, I expected that I probably misunderstood the init thing".

Nothing to feel bad about, as I said, I'm an outsider, but still annoying to get it wrong in my comment.

And then I read the second part and am simply astonished. I wasn't wrong? I just happened to stumble upon a quirk that changed recently? That's something.

I think the trick to using the NodeJS/webdev ecosystem is to ignore most of what goes on and to keep one ear barely listening in case something truly useful comes along.

...and update packages with caution. SemVer doesn't always save you and neither will static analysis (because there really isn't any).
