Sure you can use directly lodash and direct imports, the problem becomes more apparent when using libraries that cover a bit more surface compared to lodash (like Effect, like fp-ts, etc) and in many codebases that translates to a large set of namespace imports import * as F, when using F you have everything inside and discoverability is problematic. For example only the Effect module in effect-ts provides 1000+ functions inside (they are all as you say "just functions") but you have to know what the "just functions" do, i.e. is the function constructing an effect or is a function combining? i.e. map combines, succeed creates
