I think it's quite great to have Dependabot for us to upgrade dependencies
for security purposes.

I'm wondering if it's worth keeping it enabled but sometimes reject its PRs
(e.g. having duplicated packages or the upgrade makes something broken
which will require someone's effort to fix).

I also wonder it might be good to enable it with no-checking for duplicated
packages for a while to see if we can get benefits from it.
If we get build performance worse, then let's get back the checking of
duplicated packages? 🤔
