It is baffling to me that a language that is as focused on safety/security as Rust decided to take the JavaScript approach to their ecosystem. I find it rather contradictory.

That's because you're mixing things. "Rust the language" isn't the one starting new projects and add new dependencies that have hundreds of dependencies of their own, this is the doing of developers. The developers who built Rust with a focus on safety and security is not the same developers mentioned before.
