On “Announcing error-stack v0.2”

You're not wrong to feel frustrated about this! Everyone involved is aware of the pains this introduces, but there's no simple solution here. The opening keynote from RustConf 2022 goes into great detail about this specifically - *because* the error handling story keeps changing, they don't want to commit to an incomplete solution. I'd suggest watching the whole talk to understand Rust's stance on the "small stdlib" and its general strategy to language/library evolution :)
