Are we done here?

https://blogs.perl.org/users/psc/2022/05/what-happened-to-perl-7.html
At some point in the future, the PSC may decide that the set of features, taken together, represent a big enough step forward to justify a new baseline for Perl. If that happens, then the version will be bumped to 7.0.

If this happens, Perl 7 will still be backwards compatible with Perl 5 by default – you'll have to put use v7; at the top of your code to use all the new features.

I guess so. Perl is an interesting creature...
