API

This program uses Semantic Versioning. Therefore an API has to be defined: The API or the means of interacting with this program are the the command line options and the command line output. Excluded are name, version and about in the --help.

If units, formats or options are removed a major version will be released. However if units, formats or options are added then that is considered backwards compatible and a major version will not be released.

So if changes are made to the exceptions then there will be no major or minor release because they are not part of the API. Thus if your program interacts with this one and uses features outside of the API you may expect them to break in between major releases.
