Fair points all. But the breaking changes I'm referring to are items like changing method names, most likely because OCD, and helper methods, etc. While good/great tests will catch this type of stuff in your code, it will still be a lot of chasing your tail refactoring code because someone didn't like the way something was named. I see this a lot in the ruby community. Its like some sort of crazy insanity that ruby devs exercise when changing publicly exposed API methods just because _____. smh
