The problem isn't the implementation of what I want to do. It's all of the implementations of things I never cared about doing. And the implementation of what I want to do that is soooo much more complex than it needs to be that I could easily have implemented it myself in less time.

The problem is also less about the implementation I want, it's about the 10,000 dependencies of things I don't really want. All of those are attack surface much larger than some simple function.
