Between opening up with "Over the years, well-intentioned people experimented with adding meaning to those numbers..." and a reference to Hyrum's Law, your article definitely reads as a criticism of SemVar and pins it as a failed process. It isn't until 1/3 of the way through that you call out the actual failure in the process: The user. Personally, I think the 'failure' of Semvar is in large part the fault of the Node community and their lack of rigor in their releases. SemVar works fine if used correctly.
