v3 didn't last four years. Can we expect much different from v4?

If you're migrating your zod 3 code, I'd migrate to something more stable and long-lived than v4 is likely to be -- unless you want to be going through it all again in a few years (and yet again a few years after that, etc).

I don't blame the maintainers (I assume they don't have a fat support and maintenance contract)

But developers need to go in with their eyes open when it comes to adopting these throw-away libraries and frameworks.

I didn’t exactly see a litany of breaking changes here…

In fact, zod is one of the leading forces behind this: https://github.com/standard-schema/standard-schema

A major version increase in four years doesn’t exactly scream “throw-away” to me.
