A change of this kind in external script like this, it isn't an API/ABI change for me, your sentence is really opinable. With this policy every application can't be changed to improve them (note here we are talking about to change a work flow not to remove a feature). If for you it is a problem, we can close this never ending thread here. I'm happy with my script.
