Reading between the lines, it is as if you consider there to be large problems with Rust editions, but you do not wish to make Rust, Rust editions, nor the programming language concept of editions, look bad. Does upgrading a large project require intimate knowledge of that project in the worst case? How much work is it in the worst case? How do Rust editions and macros interact? Does definition of macros or usage of macros make upgrading a Rust edition harder? If yes, how much harder in the worst case?

I would say that - again reading between the lines - you've made an account on HN specifically to suggest that editions are a bad idea - but you're unwilling to associate this claim with anything else about yourself and you now realise that hurts your credibility.
