And the reasonable answer is to judge proposed changes in terms of their impact to stability, and make relevant risk/reward tradeoffs (and ideally including risk mitigation within the scope of the change).

The current milieu seems dramatically skewed toward churning out low-value changes without sufficiently considering the impact to stability, causing frequent breakage, and resulting in net negative value.
