We do not break compatibility when we can reasonably avoid it. I don't personally mind removing the old RRT and Film transforms for example, as Filmic provides a good replacement. But renaming e.g. "sRGB" to "sRGB Native 2.2" or "Filmic" to "Filmic Log Encoding Base" is in my opinion not an improvement, and certainly not worth breaking compatibility over. It also changes American to British spelling for example.
As we have discussed before, I also do not think we should require a look to be specified for the Filmic view transform to give correct results, the None look should work too. None of these things are very difficult to fix, all I'm asking is if you want to contribute an improved configuration, please do it in a way that tries to preserve compatibility where reasonable and with an explanation of why the cases that break compatibility are acceptable.
