Ironically I was needing to remove mpv, the exact example you use in the README. I had a clean install of mpv which currently needs ~33 dependencies, with nothing else installed from homebrew (literally just installed it and then ran brew install mpv). I then wanted to uninstall it right away and found this utility.

It was only able to uninstall about 23 or so of them out of the 33, but I forget the exact count. I'm pretty sure the reason is that the some of them were dependencies of other dependencies, meaning they are actually all safe to remove in this case but the relationship is a little complex.
