Asking me to name perfect records is impossible and unnecessary. You do not have to maintain backwards compatibility forever in all cases. My only argument is that it being the default approach to changing software isbwhat offers the best r

That wasn't the question. The question was why do I think it's both flawed and universally accepted. Because it is, and it isn't? These are basic facts. Have you read the semver spec? Is your libraries new version compatible

How can I explain something I clearly disagree with?

Why is semver expected? Isn't it well known to be a flawed practice yet?

It only makes sense to use the term allegedly when something isn't yet proven. I'm curious how you believe either of those statements are anything but fact given what we now know.

They now have a setting in content blocking that lets you choose between a less or more aggressive block list similar to how ublock works. I rarely see things break anymore.

Wanted to mention this. I don't stick to it as a rule but if it's clearly grouped in some way it gives people in the wider org a high level fyi about the area of code you're messing with. Makes it easy to jump over the commit

Evolution and natural selection do work on those timescales. Take a look at rapid evolution for examples. I'm not sure how fast exactly human birth ratios swing but I would hazard a guess a few dozen generations would be enough to self
