Because all dependency managers at some point devolve to "install ocean, then boil ocean".

(If you care, "brew deps <package> --tree" will tell you.)

From what I can tell, it doesn't:

  $ brew deps --include-build eza
  autoconf
  automake
  ca-certificates
  cabal-install
  certifi
  cmake
  ghc
  ghc@9.8
  libgit2
  libssh2
  llvm@18
  lz4
  m4
  mpdecimal
  ninja
  openssl@3
  pandoc
  pkg-config
  python@3.11
  python@3.12
  readline
  rust
  sphinx-doc
  sqlite
  xz
  zstd

Because most of those are dependencies required to build the actual dependencies.

There's (generally) 4 types of dependencies:

    - Toolchains (frameworks, compilers)
    - Build (headers and libraries)
    - Runtime (libraries)
    - Test (frameworks, headers, libraries)

And those dependencies all bring their own dependencies...
