@jsbarretto I think we should be breaking more of the universe in new editions. I’ve always thought that was kinda their purpose, instead we get a watered down minimal changeset which wastes a good opportunity imo.

Maybe I need to look at this through the systems programming lens where tooling is supposed to be rock solid and last for years but that begs the question: why do we have to perpetuate that?

@jamwaffles I don't disagree, although obviously care needs to be taken to avoid anything approaching an ecosystem split. Traits are the annoying one in this regard

@jsbarretto Rust already takes a lot of care (in a good way!) so that part is covered. What’s annoying about traits here?

@jamwaffles Traits leap the boundary between crates, so it's difficult to make substantial changes without breakage. Syntax and expression semantics is comparatively easy
