Yes, I can see that. I could actually have dropped Test::Differences

fall back on is_deeply if they don't have T:D installed.
At some point, people install modules for the convenience of not writing
that code themselves. I think they'll survive if you require modules
for the convenience of not having to write that code yourself, at least
if you don't go crazy with it.
The question is, what level of deps is "crazy" for something that they
don't actually need on their computer permanently but only need for 2
seconds to install something of yours.
