Hyrum's law will indeed bite multiple Rust implementations, as it already bites Rust on non-x86 CPUs because a low level language cannot entirely conceal implementation details. This is already a huge leap over C++ where you get to tickle previously undetected Undefined Behaviour if you change compilers because (safe) Rust stays safe even if you're astonished that e.g. documentation saying "the order is not defined" really means "the order is not defined" despite the fact you tested it on your laptop last week and that's how it worked. Your bad program might have bugs but it doesn't suddenly exhibit nonsense behaviour.

Fundamentally Rust's Editions are about the fact that we don't get it right first time every time. In C++ having settled on the claim that (quoting Stroustrup) "this array concept is inherently low level" the built-in array is basically abandoned as unusable garbage forever because to do otherwise would admit a mistake. In contrast Rust says sure, arrays don't yet have all the features you expect of first class containers, we will improve the language to deliver that.

I think this is a healthier philosophy and it's already successful. It isn't a panacea, but it is a very noticeable improvement.

As to taking care of items that are yet to stabilise, what's to see here? Even for something like generators that is far from finished, the keyword is reserved already, you probably wouldn't wait for an edition to land it, once it was stable you just flip the toggle and it works.
