Which is of very little importance in most cases, because modern bundlers incorporate treeshaking in order to filter out all the unused code when you're building a production application
Edit: okay well appearently that's controversial for some reason
I didn't know about treeshaking (still unsure what it is exactly since I'm not a js Dev), but I'm guessing it still takes up Gigs of space in the project folder of every Devs PC, duplicated for each project.
Some use 'pnpm' package manager, alternative to default, where the packages are downloaded once to a central location, and per project directory, it links to the original location so files aren't duplicated saving space
