And I’m a little sad to see it’s gone stable without adding support for single quotes...

Wait I’m not. As much as I dislike double quotes, if they add an option every time someone is a little sad, we’re just going back to square one. I don’t want to debate styles anymore, ever, and I’m willing to give up my own aesthetics for that.

Just means I can't use it for work, since it turns a 1 line change into a several hundred line commit (all our code has single quotes).

These 'opinionated' formatters are great as long as you agree with the opinions they have. But the inflexibility makes them useless, otherwise.

And one commit converting all single quotes to double quotes is not an option?
