I remember the discussion ... and next year we are still on 3.2.5

I can not a list what was exactly improved in 3.6.3 against to 3.5.4, but I
see in mentioned code

 // clear() is required for maven < 3.6.2
 mojoDescriptor.getParameters().clear();

So my question is:

Why should we use 3.5.4 instead of 3.6.4 as minimum in plugins?
