Plugins whose authors do not update them, should be removed

What’s becoming clear is that the disagreement here is over the questions of what’s easiest for users compared to what may be desirable for developers doing complex work. These don’t appear to yield the same answer.

Yes, exactly. I think it’s important to discuss these trade-offs.

Now that I’ve made my point about how our goals for dependency management would impact the topic of this particular thread, I expect we will continue the rest of the conversation around dependencies elsewhere.

Edit: I started a new thread about plugin dependencies.
