I agree with you.

I wrote this library because I didn't want to rewrite those functions every time I started on a new project. I put it online because I figured that I would be useful to others as well.

btw for the record I don't think there's something wrong with making small packages like this, just that I'm more likely to copy over a function or pattern that I like into my codebase, rather than bring in a dependency.

I know... But as you said (and I agreed) :) dependencies add complexity...
