I wonder how angry will the maintainers be in 2036:

aaaa, why do we have to support this ancient release, why did we promise 12 years of support

Not a problem. Ship the component as a snap instead. 😊

"Oh no, we're getting paid to do this thing instead of some other thing."

Part of having a job is working on things that need to be worked on, not because they're fun.

That still causes internal screaming and when you reach the point where you feel you don't learn anything new because you only babysit some legacy shit you leave.
