If I release a library dependent upon a particular API in one version of a dependency and before I release my next version I notice plans to break the existing API, why shouldn't I pin the version to protect users (or at least provide a maximum version) from getting horrible exceptions?
Best example: if you pin "somelibrary=1.2" in your library, none of your users can use the critical 1.2.1 bugfix release.
