For Bun to not have torched its reputation among its users, it would have had to publish this blog post _before_ pressing merge on that PR. That's what underlies most of the vitriolic reaction to the events, it was done really in a really rash way. All they had to do was a)not gaslight people about your intentions when they found the branch b)publicly post the intent to do this, and then c)publish a doc like this one right before merging, ideally leaving the branch open for like a week in case anyone in the "community" finds things to fix. Then those UB/Miri issues others found would have been "yay collaboration" boosts instead of negative issues that prove that the approach was risky/unthoughtful. If you're going to cross a rubicon, maybe tell people a)that you actually want to do it, b)why you want to do it and c)what it looks like after you've done the rewrite.
