That's exactly the communicated meaning I was concerned an oblivious reader might get. You can use an updated Rust compiler 10 years in the future while your crate is still on 2015/2018/2021 edition. Editions are NOT software versions.

I think you misunderstand the point here. The upgrade in this case means a plus in version number, that's what is said here. I was not implying that older versions of Rust Editions get obsolete.
