That sounds more like a problem of nonsensical assumptions… what possible expectation could there have been that GCC would never change this in the future?

The assumption is along the lines of "this works so why should I ever think about it again if I don't have to?"
It's not an end user problem, anyway. The issue is the language didn't change in a backwards compatible way and also didn't require setting a language version.
