You can use a 2018 crate from a 2015 crate (and vice versa) but you can’t “expose rust 2015” or something. There’s raw identifiers for anything that would be incompatible. That would require a new rustc, of course.

I'm... not sure you replied to the right comment here? What I'm talking about is writing 2018-style paths (starting with `crate::`, etc) in a 2015-edition crate, so you don't have to switch between two path styles when you switch between crates.

Ah. I just misunderstood what you meant. Sorry!
