I think that how people feel about versioning tends to correlate with their attitude towards making breaking changes to their interfaces. Some people DGAF and want to move fast and break things. They want a versioning scheme that prevents pesky end users from complaining about stuff that is now broken. Some people will go to unreasonable lengths to avoid incompatible changes. They want a versioning scheme that makes it hard for the first group of people to break stuff. These two groups will never agree on a versioning scheme.
