I'd like version numbers to indicate some element of backwards compatibility. So point releases (mostly) wouldn't need prompt changes, whereas a major version upgrade might require significant prompt changes in my application. This is from a developer API use point of view - but honestly it would apply to large personality changes in Claude's chat interface too. It's confusing if it changes a lot and I'd like to know!
