Although maybe these are two aspects of the same problem. Take the "spacebar heating" issue.
Hyrum's Law says that with a sufficient number of users, every observable change is a breaking change. So let's say you release 10 versions, and each version breaks 0.01% of your users.
It's very likely that none of those breaking changes affect me. And yet, I have to read 10 release notes before updating. And maybe those 0.01% of users are glad you bumped the major? But it sure annoys the rest of us.
