Currently, carat matching is used for the DS dep. Because of how the DS is using semver, this means it will always pull in the latest, when that might be breaking. Particularly, https://github.com/cfpb/design-system/pull/1919 will need to be incorporated here to not cause breakages once that gets merged.
Another solution is to use semver more correctly in the DS, ie, put anything breaking behind a major version update. But for now, this PR is nice defense against changes there.
