Subject: Dependency on 5.22 declared but without an explicit reasoning
Out of curiosity I tried to remove the first line of the Makefile.PL which was use 5.022; and tried it with 5.18.4 and 5.14.4 and all tests passed. Maybe it was an accident to specify such a tight restriction?

Hello Andreas, Sorry for the late response. Setting »Perl 2015« as minimum version requirement in 2018 seemed fair to me. I don't take *changing* the minimum version lightly, and rather forgo some new feature to keep it; but that also means I pick minimum versions that I am comfortable to support for some time. That rules out versions that do not support s/.../.../r for instance.
