Yeah, but when you are big enough you can afford to not care individual users.

VScode once broke a very popular extension that used a private API. Microsoft (righteously) didn't bother to ask if the private API had users.

VScode is free, so not really money on the line. Easy decision. Things get complicated when money gets involved.
