This is an honest curious question because I don't know the answer or have a 
preconceived notion. Is it possible to just try a change and then reactively 
revert it if it breaks enough stuff? What I do see here and in recent compat 
issues is a bike load of buttshedding and only a handful of people citing 
actual incidents. On either side all it amounts to are opinions and many, 
perhaps most, are based on speculation of "if this happens". I would guess many 
or most of those opinions have little relation to the actual outcome and are 
mostly based on whatever opinion the person has on the behavior being discussed.

If actual breakage is the concern then maybe things need to be broken when it 
seems plausible, just long enough to determine whether to reverse the break or 
not. For certain, when it IS broken, the feedback will be immediate and sincere.
