It was breaking enough for the Linux kernel, and the money Google sponsored to the effort remove them, https://www.phoronix.com/news/Linux-Kills-The-VLA Breaking changes are breaking changes, even if it is only fixing a comma, someone has to spend part of their time making it compile again, which many times maps to actual money for people working at a company, their salary mapped into hours. |

No disagreement there, but the context ITT was specifically about huge breaking changes. I consider those breaking changes, but not necessarily huge ones.
