it seems to me like the acceptance of breaking changes by the Zig community is more coming from "it's worth it to get a nice, polished language" than some "source of pride" which i personally have not seen in my time in a/the Zig discord server.
what is the problem with zig being developed for 10+ years? if people want stable languages there are stable languages to be used. if a language like zig is not achievable in less than 10 years, should it just not be developed from the start?
i think your problems with build.zig are overstated. where do you see someone saying "to build your first Hello World, first understand this build script in non-trivial Zig"? you can literally just do `zig run file.zig`, so if someone is advocating for that then i think many would agree they are teaching the wrong way. i wonder if you saw an example project with a build script that was intended to show the power and possibilities of Zig rather than to be a starter guide.
