> For whom?

what is the name for this kind of pointless, lazy, selective, quoting that willfully misconstrues what's being quoted? the answer to this question is incredibly clear: for the developer that created this tool. if that makes you unhappy enough to malign them then maybe you should just not use it?

Lol if you say so. I contribute to an OSS project with thousands of industry users and we break downstreams all the time - we literally have no stability guarantee. In the 2 years I've been a contributor I've seen exactly once when someone got upset about a breakage.

> and you can basically forget about ever meaningfully refactoring that codebase.

Ummm why? Breaking changes aren't the end of the world? Deprecate and communicate clearly and people are usually fine with them (if it's meaningful progress instead of churn).

Greiner's QFT book is by far the best I've ever seen.
