If people demand a certain new feature (&amp;quot;[this will] bring you new features more quickly&amp;quot;), it can just be brought out as it&amp;#x27;s ready, instead of having to wait an average of 3 (now 2) weeks before it can be released? And why does this have to increment the major version, since when is every single update backwards incompatible?</text></comment>

When things get released every year or half year I have the time to read about the changes but if I work with several packages that release all the time I don’t even have the time to read about the changes.&lt;p&gt;I also think that quality tends to suffer. Over the last two years windows 10 has released several buggy updates that caused our in house apps to stop working.</text></comment>
