Looking at several projects I’ve come across recently, I have serious doubts that a largescale transition to Swift 6 is going to happen.

Many teams are still producing large amounts of legacy code that does not take Swift 6 into consideration at all.

This trend seems to be further reinforced by LLMs (that still often generate singletons) and by engineers who simply want to get the job done.

Are we stuck?
