I definitely agree that the state of the committee's management of C++'s ability to have breaking changes is not good. Languages should really learn from how rust is handling that pattern, as it seems like it's working fairly well there. Though rust so far has a much shorter lifetime, and hasn't needed to make as large of changes as C++ has needed, the editions model (or something like it) with isolation between translation units seems like it's very workable as a general pattern.
