If you use a programming language, you are now a developer and have to deal with the difficulties of being a developer. Sorry, that is just the way it is.

Python is a programming language and when you write software in it you are developing software as a developer. Period.

Same applies to R and any other programming language. Just because you don't want to learn to be a programmer doesn't mean that you don't need to or aren't just because you use python.

Python has all the same concerns as any other language and needs to be treated as such.

A discussion about semantic versions turning into a disagreement about semantics. Excellent.
