It seems interesting the first one or two times you go through it, but in my experience it ends up feeling less like progress and more like wasted time. It's like tearing down a house because there are too many layers of paint and wallpaper on the walls.

I would much rather see some kind of third-party repository that helps to curate libraries according to varying levels of quality, and offers a contracted level of service to consumers. Sort of like what RHEL does for Linux.
