> I've been working in Elm for a few years, and I feel like I can answer some of the questions.

Who's questions? The author didn't have questions about those things.

And I'm quite certain that the author is well aware of being able to edit a shell script to get around that restriction—and even if they don't, that doesn't change the content of the post.

> The 0.19 upgrade was fairly large, but manageable ..

For _you_, but not for everyone. Can you discount all of the experiences for those whom it wasn't manageable, and for those for whom it was impossible?

> .. an Elm package that hasn't received any updates in a year probably isn't abandoned ...

This wasn't always true. It's one of the reasons why the community forked several packages that authors had abandoned.

> .. most Elm code looks similar due to using the elm architecture ...

Oh dear. There's still so many approaches, and packages, about the different ways that people approach it.

* I wrote Elm professionally for 3 years from 2017-2019
