shebang-regex

Duplicate of https://github.com/sindresorhus/shebang-regex/issues/3, however legitimately I want to know, why. This package is basically a single line, exported. It has 2295 dependents at the time that I'm posting, with downloads just this week. This is consuming gigabytes of bandwidth each and every week, countless watts of power in those downloading it, for 9 characters of data. Hell, removing the , the , and reducing the would likely also significantly reduce the amount of damage just this one library is causing. So why does this exist? Are people seriously unable to write the regex themselves? Are they incapable of copying and pasting it if they can't write it themselves? Why do you keep writing these micro dependencies?
