Well, except seemingly learning from the mistakes made when introducing breaking changes.

I not being a cynical jerk bashing on WebPack in particular here. I use it every day and am grateful for its existance, and look forward to the point where migrating to version 4 is going to be relatively painless, at which point I'll actually give that another try.

But on the whole, it's like nobody in the JS world seems to learn from the mistakes of other JS projects and they have to make them again themselves.
