> Angular is unlikely to ever find itself in that kind of situation.

AngularJS (v1) found itself in exactly that situation! But it's true that it doesn't look like new-Angular is going that way (at least not yet).

Sort of. Angular 2 came out in 2016, and Angular 1 will continue to get long-term support through 2021. That's a pretty generous window, and there's also a clear and well-documented migration path. Overall it's a dramatically better situation than the one I found myself dealing with.
