:) Yeah we live in a world of dual-option questions. I'm speaking from a users' point of view. If one program works on Node 8, other on 6, other on 0.12 sth., what do I do? Keep n runtimes for n programs? I don't know node, but I don't know C++ too, should I not use Firefox or Chrome then? Node runtime versions are unfathomable for those who don't develop on node, and thus as a user I avoid running node programs. Also, security fixes and bugfixes are expressed in semver w/ the last dot-seperated part of the number, the first number is the major version. If every fix breaks as much to bump up that number, then that's a bad sign too.
