I don't see why. Every project periodically decides what features they will move forward with and what features they will drop. Some users will have built dependencies on those dropped features. That's their problem, not the software project developers.

Python dropped or changed a lot of things between Python 2 and Python 3, creating a lot of rework for a lot of users. Are they not to be trusted as a project? Is every project obligated to support every feature they ever released, forever, to be considered trustworthy?
