I don’t think this is quite true. I can expect semver to work correctly in about 70% of all instances (working with JS/TS every day).

Biggest issues are authors that keep their libraries at 0.x forever (every minor chance can be a breaking one) and the ones that release a new major version every other week.

The times I do a minor update and something breaks are generally regarded as a bug by authors too.
