I've literally told my coworkers "I'm not saying we should never use dependencies. But every time you add a dependency, you should hate yourself a little bit more. Some self flagellation can't hurt either."

One of the (few) good things about corporate bureaucracy is that if I want to use a new dependency, I have to double check the licence and if it has any restrictions, I need to tell my PM or release engineer to create a new request with legal who will get back to us in 2-3 weeks.
