Good question.

It will necessarily use slightly more memory.

Performance depends on our use cases.  Currently, all our use cases
(finding packages by name or by description, listing them, etc.)
traverse the whole list.  Thus, it would not buy us anything to use
streams here.

Perhaps we can revisit that if/when we have an application where it
would help, but that doesn’t come to mind here.

WDYT?
