> Oh ya Brew, also substantially more pain-free than other package manager experiences.

No joke - I have never heard someone that uses multiple package managers praise Brew. If you have to use it in a larger org, across system architectures or are versioned across system upgrades, it is the single most fragile package manager you can employ. pamac, apt, rpm and eopkg all wipe the floor with Brew.

Nix and Macports are a bit better, but anyone that's used a proper package manager knows Brew is a lightweight.
