Personally I just can't, I really hate the UI and the software stack.

Sure as long as you are in the terminal you don't notice it but at some point you are going to need to open Finder (and Finder really sucks, sorry) and you are going to need to install software and homebrew is in the same category as npm.

Homebrew runs against a curated and tested package repository maintained by a dedicated team of vetted maintainers.

NPM is free-for-all with zero curation. Anyone can upload whatever they want.
