But I want to argue one point: that versioning APIs would be simpler than versioning a component/lib.
If a lib exposes one API seperating the version numbers would result in two.
If we look at exposed API and differentiate by purpose (a good idea imho) we would have multiple version identifiers- one for each API and one for the component.
I thought about API versioning and testing (a special kind of unit test to verify the contract an API promises) but I don't think we are prepared for such complexity.
