ruby - 为什么是 "wrong to require rubygems"？

Question

根据 this post ，需要 ruby​​gems 是一种反模式。

require 'rubygems'

争论似乎归结为:

When I use your library, deploy your app, or run your tests I may not want to use rubygems. When you require 'rubygems' in your code, you remove my ability to make that decision. I cannot unrequire rubygems, but you can not require it in the first place.

但是，当您创建代码库并与其他人共享代码库时，对于您“需要”的任何 Ruby 库，难道不能提出同样的论点吗？

如果你看评论，你会看到作者这样说

The point I was not trying to make is that rubygems is bad or that people shouldn’t use it. I use rubygems and think it’s a critical piece of Ruby’s success – I just don’t have the line “require 'rubygems'” anywhere in my library’s source code because it’s not necessary or convenient and makes it hard / impossible for other environments (like bundler, rip, GAE, debian, hand rolled, etc) to use the library without rubygems, which is often important.

其实我看之前不太同意他的观点，现在我同意了
