Interesting approach. I guess Linux distributions like Debian will then 
also stick to GHC LTS releases.

Btw. I think GHC-9.14 is the first GHC release with such a high second 
version number. We had GHC-6.12, GHC-7.10, GHC-8.10.

In my memory, GHC-7 was the version range for consolidating type families, 
GHC-8 was the version range for consolidating kind level extensions, GHC-9 
could have been the version range for dependent types, maybe GHC-10 will.
