I don't see why you want to continue pushing off users instead of
working out a method that satisfies more users.  Breaking ABI stability
gratuitously as has been done in the destabilises the platform and
causes unnecessary churn.

Have you tried sticking to security updates only?  If you have done
that, you will know that it still doesn't save up much because updates
often pile up.  The way it is done within Fedora, security fixes are
often new major upstream versions that suck in a lot of the enhancement
updates as dependencies.
