> However, maybe a release or two of deprecation or better optimized defaults under new names or a new (kinda gross but...) strict mode which is opt-in but is the new default for new instalations. Something like this or a \version "2.12.0" command would be massively useful. The alternative is a sea of undisclosed footguns that are blindingly obvious once you know they exist but otherwise are well-camouflaged. Ok, the other alternative is for every future developer to brainlessly spam a long incantation of sensible values that they swear they'll learn about later just so a Fortune 500 early-adopter company can have smoother upgrades.
