This has nothing to do with entitlement. Nothing about my post had to do with open source. The same issues apply to proprietary API changes. Further, I maintain 150 open source projects, 20+ of them active. I still take into account that making a change to an API effects every user downstream. You can spin this anyway you want. If you run an project (open or closed) and you make a change the costs 10s of thousands or million of hours of collective work downstream you just effectively burned down X amount of trees, put Y amount of carbon in the atmosphere, made Z number of people work late instead of being with friends and family, etc...
