In my experience tt happens rarely enough that it appears to scale just
fine.  Every time it happens is a drag, of course, but only a small
percentage of CRAN and Bioconductor packages suffers from problems like
that.  That’s still an estimated dozens of packages, but it’s not quite
as bad as it may seem.
