As a worthless junior dev, thank you for the post. I am seeing a general sentiment of reluctancy towards an introduction of yet another dubious metric in an environment where "software quality" is hijacked to mean something else.

This lead me questioning how good is it to judge a project by its age + last commit (+ project size/complexity + funding/community), as this is what I do in practice. I agree that SemVer isn't really designed to be human-readable and is a rather meaningless / deceiving metric due to divergent practices of different developers.
