Right, having more user friendly introductions on packaging.python.org
is a good idea, but it's a separate question. To address that specific
problem, we can paraphrase the semantic versioning compatibility
section from PEP 440:
https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0440/#semantic-versioning

I filed a PR along those lines, inserting it as a new subsection under
"Configuring your project"

Right. Another potential benefit of this approach is that it means we
can more easily cross-link from the implementor facing specifications
to end user facing parts of the user guide - at the moment, there's no
standard discoverability path from PEPs like PEP 440 to
packaging.python.org at all.

Cheers,
Nick.
