But didn't the OP show exactly a situation where this system broke down?
There is a new version of the Rust library. In theory, either anything that supports it should be updated selectively (i.e. Firefox) or all consumers should be updated in lockstep. Yet in practice the maintener decided that neither option was feasible so nothing was updated at all. What went wrong here?
