I personally don't think it should be made easier to pull in external libraries. It encourages developers to pull in libraries which pull in libraries which pull in libraries ad infinitum. I've built seemingly simple rust programs that pulled in hundreds of dependencies.
Then in the javascript world you regularly see packages that indirectly pull in thousands of dependencies, including stuff like this https://jeremyaboyd.com/post/there-s-a-package-for-that
Of course there is a case for pulling in libraries that solve complex problems instead of forcing everyone to independently solve then, but it seems that the easier it is to pull in deps the dumber developers act.
