Learned today that you can't trust the dependencies of an older project not to break that project even if you update it according to its own composer specs.

just trying to make sense of my own impressions, things have felt fragile in exactly this way but then there's components intended specifically to make them not fragile in this way so i'm trying to get a sense of when and why they don't work
