Our Commentary ​

The sudo warning is a smart move. I've definitely seen people accidentally mess up their global installs by running sudo pnpm add -g. It's a small change, but it prevents future headaches. The dependency graph optimizations are also welcome; anything that makes installs faster and more reliable is a win in my book.
