Hi Bynn, Breaking in this case means a break in the continuity of what the software will do when rendering sizes. Before it would do X, now it will do Y. Sometimes these breaks are required so the software can continue to develop along the standard way. For example svg viebox and default dpi in svg2. There's no loss in functionality, but there may be some images that print bigger (or is it smaller) than they used to if they're not converted.
