That I understand. :-)
IMHO the main purpose of matplotlib in the RPM package is to support
other RPM packages. Developers who want the new stuff can use venv+pip.
Every time that I read this I always remember Jamie Zawinski's quote:
Some people, when confronted with a problem, think "I know, I'll use regular
expressions." Now they have two problems.

Is there any serious trouble with matplotlib 2 that would justify
the
update?
IMHO it is more the other way around, with our emphasis on python 3 for
Fedora 29+ matplotlib 3.0.0 is the first release to fully go into python 3
that would align both goals.
All IMHO, of course. :-)
