> GCC is very vocal on how they don't support ABI compatibility

Source? They very rarely break ABI. They even release ABI break fixes sometimes.

> Microsoft was very vocal ensuring they enforce ABI compatibility from Visual Studio 2015 onward.

They try to keep ABI stable, but nothing is promised until the actual releases happen.

Always expect a new ABI version at some point in the future!
