My understanding is that an older edition will eventually stop 
being supported, and that the intent is at some point for old 
code to be ported to a newer edition if it needs to compile with 
a newer compiler.

Changing `float.init` could cause errors that can only be 
detected at runtime, perhaps in some very rare combination of 
runtime events. I don't think D should (ab)use editions to 
silently break the runtime behaviour of code that was correct in 
an earlier version.
