I hear you, but you might be projecting a bit. FTA:

> "Svelte 3 was released more than four years ago! In JavaScript-framework-time, that's eons. Svelte’s freshness has persisted throughout, but Node.js and browser APIs have evolved during that time and today we’re updating Svelte to take advantage of some of these improvements. Svelte 4 is mainly a maintenance release, bumping minimum version requirements and tightening up the design in specific areas."

This seems eminently reasonable to me.

Maybe they shouldn't call it Svelte 4 then. Major version in semver are usually breaking.
It definitely qualifies, given e.g. its minimum required node.js version.
