[Article idea] How hard it is to release major versions

Recently I add a discussion on Twitter where the topic of PrestaShop slow major releases lifecycle was discussed. I thought it would be interesting to explain how hard it is to release new major versions and be able to onboard the community with this new version (to avoid a split like PS 1.6 / PS 1.7 some years ago).

Would it be a good idea for the PrestaShop Build blog, or would it be too specific (and then I'll write this article on my own blog) ?

The article would explain what a new major release could bring (benefits), with what cost, and how hard it is to make everybody (module developer, integrators, hosting providers, agencies, freelances and merchants) adopt the new major version by making the big jump.
