I'm glad that semver is being widely adopted outside of the npm/rails world. It's incredibly useful to understand how much work will go into upgrading a package

I think the attachment around "saving" major releases are really just attachments to marketing messages of yesteryear. It still feels good to announce "Library Version 3!", but from a technical perspective, semver is far more consumable and sensible. I'd rather be confident Lib v27.3.0 -> v27.4.3 won't break my build than having v2.9.0 -> v2.10.11 break my build, but look nicer.
