It's all about interfaces, which are what permit programs to work together at all. They are contracts among cooperating programmers that when changed break everyone else's work and components. Changing an interface generally sucks, but shipping a freshly changed interface without publishing the new definition and giving cooperating entities time to re-do their work to match sucks even more.

Yeah, because you know, Fedora and X.org keep everything in hiding and
never let any bits out until they are released.  Also, they never tell
anyone what they are doing.

Exposing your development work in progress has nothing in common with announcing a new stable definition. When did the latter happen?
