There was lots of useful stuff in this release. It is not like it just fixed a couple of bugs. More than enough new functionality to be newsworthy and enough for me to go get the new release for Mac (which does not auto-update).
It is also great to track the incremental progress towards things like full CMYK support.
You may also misunderstand how GIMP releases work. Things will probably move faster now that version 3 is out but there will be LOTS of progress in the 3.0 releases before they release 3.2. If you wait for 3.2, you will be waiting a while and miss many useful features. The 3.1.x series is a dev branch for more invasive changes. A lot of the nee functionality will appear in 3.0.x.
More useful than that comment for sure.

If there’s new functionality, it should have been a minor version bump smh
