maybe dont auto upgrade whole number versions, if I write `3.0.0` 
and leave it there for 5 years, its not "orphaned" its done

or maybe do it entirely on time, if a package goes untouched for 
3 months it gets a major version coloring even if it the sysvar 
disagrees

Post-ai I hope this update maxxing theory of software dies; it 
better for someone intelligent to spend a week on 100 lines of 
code 10 years ago then from some ai-addict shipping 1000000 lines 
every few hours, yet npm, git is built under the assumption that  
everything should be continuously updated and it even a problem 
to solve
