The new measurement classes have clearer names (``Distance`` instead of ``Measure<Distance>``, or ``LinearAcceleration`` instead of ``Measure<Velocity<Velocity<Distance>>>``), and implement math operations to return the most specific result types possible instead of a wildcard ``Measure<?>``.

Normally we only put things in the changelog that changed from year to year, since that's what's relevant come January. The release documents what changed since the last beta.

I think it depends on how you look at it. I am thinking about this as a change from what people are expecting coming from past years which is a pop up that prompts them to build. We didn't include anything about this previously because the functionality prior to this matched that expectation from previous years.

The new functionality is something completely different that doesn't match the expectations of people coming from last year. It now builds automatically with no prompt.
