Get your point, but I kind of like it. It tells some really important info, and they are hardly alone. Python 3.x was breaking change. Until they they stayed in 2.x versioning a long time. And we will never see a Python 4.x

Python also makes breaking changes in minor releases; 3.5 introduced async/await and 3.7 made them reserved keywords.

But many languages try really hard not to make breaking changes. With good reason...
