Developers have been afraid of 1.0.0 for a while, in defiance of the semver spec [1], in particular in the Rust ecosystem, but being afraid of 0.1.0 is a whole new level. Wtf. I guess 0.1 has become the new 1.0 after years of mis-versioning. Those coreutils are being included in Ubuntu, call them 1.0! It's fine, you still have a countable infinity of version numbers if you need to make changes, even incompatible ones!

If you have a stable API on which users have come to depend, you should be 1.0.0. If you’re worrying a lot about backward compatibility, you should probably already be 1.0.0.
