Well... I would argue that angular 2 is not even better than angular 1 so it will probably happen again :p
It's more performant, but that's about it. It's insane, java/spring like complex for no reason.

Really? So mobile support, change detection revamp, TypeScript, the removal of $scope, and all the routing changes are all just "meh" to you?
They didn't just do this "because." There were sound technical reasons to do so. Angular made the correct decision, in my opinion, and decided to cut its losses immediately and right the wrongs within the framework.
