There are no truths but your opinion in this case runs counter of what 35 years developing software have taught me.
Obviously, I may be an outlier. Some crank who's just smitten by the proposal of spending his time writing code instead of trying to get a dependency (and its sub-dependencies and their sub-dependencies) to build at all (e.g. C/C++) or to have the right version that works with ALL the code that depends on it (e.g. Python).
I.e. I use cargo foremost (by a large margin) for that reason.
