God, I love emacs
I think some people don't understand that software can be complete/finished and not need any more updates unless a bug is reported. Software doesn't have an expiry date.
Sure, but software that targets a moving platform like Emacs can often break. I'm commenting on how stable Emacs is, even past major releases (25->29 in this case).
