I don’t actually get that from the current text. It says “can change when necessary” and doesn’t say “...but we prefer not to”. That’s probably why it mentions 1.0. Like, “we’re not 1.0 yet so why not break things”.

Do you think it would be appropriate to rewrite that paragraphs as follows?

> We try to keep the ABI and API stable unless it's really necessary to break them. An ABI change means that all plugins will not load and they must be rebuilt. An API change means that some plugins might not build correctly.
