You're not wrong - the semver doesn't indicate a breaking API change. But, to be fair, this wasn't a breaking API change.

Any consumer of this software using it for its intended purpose (S3) didn't need to make any changes to their code when upgrading to this version. As an AWS customer, knowing that when I I upgrade to this version my app will continue working without any changes is exactly what this semver bump communicates to me.

I believe calling this a feature release is correct.

While I agree that the author is just whining about this situation and that AWS did nothing wrong, I'd argue that a change in defaults is a breaking change.

I don't think that's the case? AWS didn't fix a bug or removed some UB.

That's closer changing default key-binding. Anyways, all I'm saying - I would have considered it a breaking change because it changes default behavior.

i treat defaults as a convenience feature which are subject to change :shrug:

Correct, I just would appreaciate that change in default behavior would be treated as a breaking change. It's really no that hard to grasp and many OSS projects treat it as such.
