Refusing to make any breaking changes is how we end up with... well, PHP. There's nothing inherently wrong with breaking change. Too much of it can annoy developers, sure. And sometimes it has to hurt a little bit so progress can be made (see Python). But doing little to no breaking changes ever will eventually cause problems and/or headaches. That said, I wonder how many people moved to (for example) Rust simply because C++ moves slowly. Probably not that many, but surely it's nonzero.
