In general, and this applies to many language communities, you are encouraged to include all kind of garbage dependencies into your project.

Adding dependencies should be something you consider carefully. Every line of code has a maintenance cost - a dependency has it times 1000. Effectively you are adding technical debt in many cases.

For instance I just developed a new react app with just react and react-router. My colleagues suggested react-query but why add this when you can do all you need with a few lines of code and fetch?
