"the entire ML ecosystem has been reinvented in the last 5 years"

Fifteen years, maybe, but because of new technology. Actual physical machines that did not exist earlier.

The churn in JS frame works is because because because, no better reason.

Great reply to this mindset. The chance that anyone who makes this claim has actually evaluated enough (or any) JS projects to see why they churn is effectively zero.

We have version pinning for a reason. It lets churn exist without forcing the effects of it onto other developers. I don't care if a library I use gets updated every week or even every day, I'm not installing every new version when it's released, that's silly. Nobody does that in a real project, that's chaos.

I have evaluated a lot of Javascript frameworks, back in the day.

I have seen nothing new in JS frame works. I have seen a lot of old in JS frame works.

The whole area stinks. Repeating mistakes of yesteryear.

Easier to write than read - explains a lot
