I think it is fine for node to have limited, basic, built in support for .env files, and then leave the opportunity for the ecosystem to add in more features.
Easy things should be easy, and hard things should be possible through npm install.
Great way of putting it. It does seem a little off compared to how `npm run` works (it traverses up to a package.json), but I agree .env files could get sketchy.
Maybe it could traverse up to where it finds a package.json actually.
