That’s what dependency bot is for.
Yeah solutions like that have existed for a long time... yet here we are.
I think it is being understated how much of the underlying stuff is being updated with massive feature sets that are growing exponentially larger.
I dont disagree with the OP, that minor stuff like this probably is low risk.
But the dependency tree is getting deeper and wider, with code bases that are being shipped with little to no testing.

Great way to kill his confidence and teach him the wrong way to go about things IMO. He's actively trying to learn as a junior and you're telling him "nahhh... just use the magic answer box."
Junior to me, not inexperienced. The guy has been with the company over 10 years. Despite all that he insists on not changing with the times.

Critical thinking and overall deep process understanding will be lost at some point if everything just comes out of the magic answer box.
I am floored at how much AI slop is coming out of people in the workforce now; it's impressive at first, but after a while you start to notice it: the sing-songy this not that style in the prose, the too small text in the documents, the pointlessly complex code with overtly verbose code comments.
I've also noticed some problems with the magic answer box as of late, especially if it's something not easily found on the internet, even if you do provide it context. It's still helpful, but it's not the gospel it's portrayed as, and the monthly flat rate has been changed to a meter in a lot of places.
I keep getting told my job is going away by the media; never say never, but it won't be because of AI.
