I think that's the right call. IMHO now is the time to experiment with it, not to replace pandas where it's already working.

The API is still seeing some (expected) breaking changes, and could become a maintenance burden across multiple projects. But the API already feels more consistent, and overall seems to be going in the right direction.

You made me curious to look up the recent breaking releases https://github.com/pola-rs/polars/releases/tag/py-0.19.0 https://github.com/pola-rs/polars/releases/tag/py-0.20.0 And their policy about it: https://docs.pola.rs/development/versioning/#deprecation-war...

Looks like you ought to set aside some time to do updates each quarter, but I do wonder how much breakage can there be in practice, most changes seem pretty niche.
