The yum to dnf transition was supposed to be the “the old API was so horribly broken that we had no choice but to throw it away and design a new API completely from scratch” event. Every software project gets one of those (1). Demand another, and users / downstream developers will (rightly) question why the project’s developers weren’t competent to ensure their first API rewrite didn’t preclude the necessity of any others. A flippant retort is not an appropriate way to handle this criticism.
