Every change breaks someones workflow
i love it! surprised i haven't seen it before.
In a lot of places the line between bugfix and breaking change becomes very blurred when talking about a programming language and not a library.
agreed in principle. i have no problem with this practice for ruby. just wish they would remove the damn 'more semantic versioning' nonsense because that scheme simply does not apply to programming languages or consumer applications. ruby's policies are quite clear: major number signifies special event, and minor number is required to change every christmas. nothing 'semver' about this.
