As someone who migrated a somewhat old project to one which uses a newer framework, I agree with this. The amount of time I spent trying to figure out why and old module was broken before realizing that one of it's dependencies was using ESM even though it was still using CJS... I don't even want to think about it. Better to just make sure that a module was written or updated within the last 3 years because that will almost certainly work.
