It's obviously satirical. If so, the author is brilliant. Otherwise, well...

I mean just look at the project show cases. Included are the usual colossal cluster^Wframeworks that power our decaying software infrastructure.

Personally, I don't trust anything that either stays perpetually under v1.0 or exceeds v10-15.

What do you think about internet browsers like Firefox and Chromium?

I find it ridiculous that Chrome, Edge and Firefox are all currently around v115. It's just a marketing term now. I've seen Firefox and Thunderbird major version numbers change for simple bugfixes. A release date would be enough.

There's no point in calling it 1.0 unless you want to break compatibility with 0.x. Sometimes you get the design right on day 1, I guess.

In SemVer, you can break compatibility with 0.x within 0.x. 1.x is the promise that there won't be any future compatibility breaks within the 1.x series.
