Remove the Babel extension version numbering as unused or use it for its intended purpose
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

The extension currently uses version 1.12.0 since Feb 26 2020. But if we look at the history of extension, we see both big changes and many small ones. Rarely does anyone increase the version when create a patch, and if they do increase it, they forget about SemVer. It seems to me that some kind of decision needs to be made: completely abandon versioning or somehow control the change in versions.

The arguments we collected in T213066: Proposal to remove all version numbers from all WMDE maintained extensions might help, in case you need some.
