Answer
Consistency and easier maintenance. Frame the concept in practical terms so you can explain it during interview discussion.
Centralizing dependency definitions ensures that all modules use the same library versions, reducing conflicts and easing updates. In a large project with multiple teams, this practice prevents each team from independently upgrading libraries, which could lead to inconsistencies.
