| Jul 2, 2020 at 2:22 | comment | added | xzczd♦ | @JohnFultz So, the behavior of kernel is an incompatible change of kernel in v3.0, and the behavior of front end is a bug introduced in v3.0 and fixed in v12.1.0? | |
| Jul 1, 2020 at 16:55 | comment | added | John Fultz | There's no need to guess here, or pick favorites between the kernel and the FE. The documentation trumps everything. Any variation from the documentation is always a bug (it might be a bug in the documentation, of course, but in practice that's pretty rare). reference.wolfram.com/language/tutorial/OperatorInputForms.html And, yes, it was indeed an intentional bugfix. Three external users had reported some variant of this, and IIRC it came up on the Redmine, too. | |

| Jun 30, 2020 at 7:09 | comment | added | xzczd♦ | Seeing the behavior of v2.1 , I'm a bit confused which change should be regarded as bug... (Check my update. ) | |
