Although I agree they have a good attitude towards deprecation and backwards compatibility, I do not believe their progressive attitude works necessarily implies a lax attitute to backwards compatibility.
Investigation is underway for more sweeping changes where backwards compatibility can be broken on the fundamental level. This is the Dotty project [1], which will influence development of Scala 3.

Looks tasty, wish it were more like 2016.
