Businesses will not want to commit to a balkanized project.
It's been ages since I worked on a software project for a
business that didn't have many random third (and fourth and fifth
and sixth and seventh.....) party dependencies. Trying to remove
or avoid them would universally encounter pushback from

It is really absurd.
But anyway this whole debate is moot because if you like the
code, you can simply copy/paste it (with attribution as required
by Boost copyright of course) into your own files. You keep full
control and get all the benefits of using it.
