This is the classic argument of, do you proceed conservatively and use the 
lowest-common denominator that makes your code work with the widest range of 
versions, or do you ride the wave and adopt the latest and greatest features as 
soon as they’re available?

Neither answer is wrong or right… for everyone.  It’s also a debate as old as 
the software industry. Every package, project, company, developer, community 
will have to decide for themselves.  Once you realize you can’t win, you’ve 
won! :)
