I feel like a maintainer of a gem should keep an eye on the changelog of the language the library is written on. At least to check if there are new features that one can take advantage of.
Anyhow, I don't like either but I don't think it's an insane idea. There's no right time to fix a bad behavior people built their libraries on, unfortunately
