We would like to upgrade inquirer to the latest version.
However doing so will increase our package size significantly since tabtab still references an old inquirer version, so by upgrading inquirer it will no longer get de-duped by npm.
See #3960 (comment)
I opened a PR in tabtab to address the issue, but the repo seems to be unmaintained.
Another alternative is to use a new npm feature called overrides, but that only helps with npm>=8.3.0. See https://github.com/npm/cli/releases/tag/v8.3.0
