I agree a hundred percent with the authors. We have worked hard to get us where we are today where there is pressure for companies to update their packages. This so called cool down backslides us from it.

Here is one example

https://www.nuget.org/packages/System.CommandLine#versions-b...

2.0.6 was released less than a day ago. How long will you wait? I'd argue any wait is unwarranted.

It sounds nice to people because we are used to thinking in terms of Microsoft Windows and Microsoft SQL Server releases where people wait for months after a new version is released to update. Except companies actually pay for these! So somehow this kind of illogical action or I would argue learned helplessness that happens with flagship Microsoft product releases is what we are now advocating as the default everywhere which is a terrible idea.

Dependency cooldowns should NOT be the default. I don't know what a proper solution is but I know this isn't it.
