Like leftpad?

Unlike a dependency a function is an immutable artefact. You write it once, done, you get a checksum that matches that exactly. You can even guarantee it’s the function because of it… so not really at all like leftpad or npm, where commit hashes and versions are only loosely correlated to actual code
