I think some of this is because even package maintainers have a hard time deciphering what is potentially "breaking". There was a great talk at GopherCon about an ambitious project whose goal was to be able to detect if you made backwards incompatible changes, which on the facade seems easy (to some folks, apparently) but is in fact not.
- notJim 5y agoThat’s funny, because on the face of it, detecting breaking changes seems impossible to me, not easy.
- kodah 5y agoI remember the speaker going pretty in depth on "what looks obvious" vs "bet you didn't know this changes behavior". That said, my sentiment is the same as yours. I was surprised that even needed addressing.
