The problem is maintiaining all the branches and keeping people interested in the next branch because people tend to focus on the currently release branch. When we decided upon the release RFC we talked a lot about the overhead of maintaing multiple branches and tried to reduce the amount of branches. In particular with API changes it becomes tidious if we try to maintain a feature across branches and that implicit divergence has to be resolved better sooner or later, or otherwise it would be just like the old php6 again.
