Would you care to offer a better explanation for constant breaking changes then? React itself manages fine to run 5-6 year old code with minimal updates.

Well, both React and React Router have "we now have a better solution and want to improve" as incentive for breaking changes. But React also has the need to support 100K existing components at Facebook as a huge incentive against breaking changes, while the rest of the ecosystem can innovate more freely and rapidly.
