		// MINOR bumps (e.g. 2.13.x -> 2.14.0), never MAJOR — so gating purely on the major
		// digit (isMajorUpdate) would suppress the modal for every feature release. Treat a
		// major OR minor increase as a feature update so feature releases are announced as
		// documented, while patch-only bumps stay quiet. Unparseable versions fall back to
		// showing the update (mirrors isMajorUpdate's err-on-the-side-of-showing default).
