"How many times you got the API wrong"? I get the concept, and maybe it's correct some of the time... but it ignores the vast majority of software releases over time, which are evolved products/projects. What I initially set out to do != what's valuable/useful to the world.

So you got the API wrong - because you didn't have omniscience about every possible problem your code would need to solve in the future. There's no shame in admitting that with a major version bump. None of us are infallible.

    The largest I'm aware of is the nvidia driver, version 471.
