I think they replied to that on some occasions already [0], that projects in future will diverge, especially if the community will raise issues that require that.

BUT... 1.6 was a drop-in replacement for terraform. I can see 1.7/1.8 has some new things going on, but they made effort to handle that. For instance, some new features will be available if you use .tofu extension, but not when using .tf file extension. Tofu uses .tofu one and ignores .tf if both are present.

There seems to be a clear effort to keep our code compatible with both tools (with cosmetic changes at best) for as long as possible.
