Thanks, I see the notes. Mostly looks like new features. Are there any benefits to upgrading if not taking advantage of the new features yet (that is, does it improve existing code)? I see some improvements for example around the Optional usage, although if we were using Optional now it appears it would be broken, so it’s more of a pre-emptive bug fix. It also seems to be beneficial to upgrade to prevent the possibility of inserting new changes that would break upon upgrade, such as relying (or not) on the linked list behavior changes.
