Why is adding dependecies making it more complex?
It's exactly the opposite - less code to maintain.

If you have a large web of dependencies between a set of projects, that's a big indicator that they ought to be one big project anyway, or at least split up differently.

Again nonsense.
Refactoring is extremely easy if you have an external thing that does things for you.
See my previous e.g.: "e.g. if you wanna add a restriction check"

In most cases those ext libs have stand the test of time,
so they are much better then the crap you quickly code yourself.
And the nicest things about all the pieces in my version of Papaki is that we control them all,
meaning it's easy to create any missing feature or fix/extend an existing one.
