On: Hack – CSS framework for Hackers

For what possible reason? I'm eternally out of touch with what mainstream front-end devs seem to think is a good idea.

Because npm is a package manager that most devs already need present for their front-end build step (to install their deps for gulp/grunt/browserify etc) , and bower is an 'extra' thing that addressed a need that no longer exists.

Because you need npm to install bower.
