Description
We've gotten reports before about the documentation being wrong when it's actually an issue with a package manager behaving in a bizarre way or a specific setting for a package manager not working with the strategy proposed in the documentation.
We won't be able to document every edge case or odd behavior of every package manager's module resolution algorithm, so I'd prefer to make mention of this in the docs.
We do our best. 😬
