It seems overly charitable to me to frame the dispute in those terms. You and I might differ as to the appropriate amount of vermouth in a martini or pineapple on a pizza and I won't worry much about it, within reason.

There's a limit though! I think up to about 10% pineapple by weight is reasonable for a Hawaiian, if you choose 0 or 20% then we'll have no issue. If you went to 30% I don't think I could stop myself writing a libellous remark on hn. Anything about 50% and I would be morally forced to denounce you to the proper authorities. About 80% is where the nightmares begin.

At a certain point, isn't it just grilled pineapple with pizza crumbs?

Even if you think having a dependency load `is_even()` is a good thing, surely you can see how it's pretty hard to defend having a completely separate and nearly identical `is_odd()` rather than just `!is_even()`

The argument is that non-programmers like his wife don't understand e.g. `!`.

I think if you're installing npm packages and writing code you're a programmer whether you want to be or not.
