Binary compiled ones probably also need to be kept.
Presumably this also means identifying "top level" packages that are an
end goal in themselves and need to be kept.

That sounds like a Change Proposal for F28.
So your idea would be to mass-retire all but the most common or
security-sensitive NPMs from Fedora and rely on bundling in most cases?
That will also mean coming up with a strategy for removing those
unbundled packages on updates. Thoughts on that?

I was wondering, could we use bundling and clean up the mess that is
current nodejs stack in Fedora?
To be more precise, there are currently over 2000 packages and over
500 nodejs-* is available bugs,
that nobody has time to fix and/or feels like fixing, because
updating one module might/will break several others.
For the sake of maintainability, I'd like to leave as little
packages as possible.

I haven't had any time to work on it, but I'd very much like
to develop an automatic RPM dependency generator that will
recurse down the node_modules directories, read their
package.json files and automatically create those Provides.
If anyone else wants to take a crack at doing that, it would
be an immense help.
A big thank-you needs to go to Tomas Tomacek for
https://pagure.io/nodejs-packaging/pull-request/2 which is now
in effect on Fedora 28 (Rawhide) builds.
So now any Node.js package that is built in Fedora will
automatically have `Provides: bundled(nodejs-foo)` added
automatically.
