Chromatic's whole point is there wont be a 6.0.0 ever.

That's not my point at all.

As a matter of fact he is telling the version number is just a farce.

They often are. Should you not use Test::More because it's almost a decade old and hasn't reached that mythical, magical, flying candy-flavored unicorn version number of 1.0?

Now we have to decide for ourselves what is stable and ready for us to use in our environments.

You've always had to decide that. Again, see Test::More.
