The Streamlined API has a stable interface and changes follow Semantic Versioning where-ever
possible. Outside of major releases, only backwards-compatible changes will be made. It is sometimes necessary to make
backwards-incompatible changes without a new major release, but the old will always be deprecated for at least
two versions before the changes are implemented. Deprecated behavior will be documented in the API reference and
will raise an APIDeprecationWarning when the behavior is encountered.
