Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
No response
Describe the solution you'd like
To simplify, per discussion with @rigor789 in Discord.
Describe alternatives you've considered
Devs can use their package manager directly to install plugins: npm install <foo>, etc.
Anything else?
I'd suggest any reference to ns plugin install in docs be changed to only mention NPM's install command: "npm install <foo> or as appropriate for your package manager", to reduce docs maintenance. Users of other package managers know the analogous command for their package manager.

Confirm the project's intended deprecation behavior, update references to the package-manager wording, and verify that the command and documentation consistently reflect the decision.
