That’s an interesting point.

In that case, I’d make an abstraction wrapper around [count~] that filtered out 
the set message and printed something about it (aka “upgrade perhaps? :)". Add 
that to the repo for the older version, although there is no guarantee what 
version people would have.

Thankfully, deken should help make a transition like this easier.
