Node.js packages don't deserve your trust
This is absolutely not true, and I'm tired of seeing this.
is-odd, alongside a bunch of other microdependencies are almost all the work of one person, who made as many micropackages as possible and then PRd them into other more popular libraries. There are not 6 million people directly downloading `is-odd` a day. At all.
When this person could make one library to do something (like an ANSI-Colouring package), they would fractalise it into as many dependencies as possible, because that boosts their download count on NPM. I should note that this is just one person who has managed to nestle their way into some larger projects. I apologise for the spam, but this point really needs hammering home:
