Because we have literally thousands of fixed bugs, I guess. Every single bug means something didn't work; be it a format character producing odd results, a function segfaulting, a special connection type on windows was NOOP or whatever didn't work in one release or the another. In the case of new functionality it may feel weird that the functionality didn't work at all until a bug was fixed (i.e. next version) but then we should rather throw in a white lie about that functionality simply didn't exist before that version. It would suck big time to read documentations that are overcrowded with those kind of notes. -Hannes
