Getting a wee bit tired of grandstanding that "#Rstats cannot do reproducibility" because of what may be a misunderstanding: you do not "get" reproducibility "for free" by shoving your (semi-randomly?) collected dependencies into some sort of persistence envelop or environment.
You get reproducibility by carefilly writing code using stable interfaces. I have packages that have been on CRAN 20+ years and work now as they worked then. Still on .libPaths(), and no issues.
