Running BA on both 1.12 and 1.12.1

Hey, could you possibly make the mod run on both 1.12 and 1.12.1? I find it strange that some modders didn't make their mods run between 1.12 and 1.12.1, as they are literally the exact same (say for a couple of naming changes and security changes)
I don't like doing that, so no. Also in my opinion I find it strange that people want mods that work on multiple version, you can only play on one version at a time. So what would be the point of having a mod that runs on multiple versions.
Well, you have some mods that only work on one version and others that do. In case, it's even stranger because newer updates that modders are releasing don't work with the base (in this case, 1.12). I do understand that it ends up being problematic updating for multiple versions. But it doesn't make sense with not adding support for a patch, not an entirely new updates (i.e. 1.7 to 1.8). With 1.12.1 and 1.12, there's still many mods that use 1.12 and some modders are actually purposely not supporting the base 1.12. And with certain mods like ItemPhysics, switching to 1.12.1 actually breaks the mod as the modder hasn't actually adapted to some of the changes made in 1.12.1
The more annoying thing is the fact many of the mods that can run on both 1.12 and 1.12.1 aren't marked to run on both. And this creates much confusion among all sides: modders, the users, map makers, modpacks; basically everyone. As a former modder myself, I understand your reasoning why (on Android, it's much worst ). The reason why I came to request this compatibility because I'm actually developing a mod pack for my sever, and this 1.12.1 patch has been and utter disaster for me (the sever manager and the only one at that) and the users, as certain mods that made the server run well and give it some flare in features don't work on 1.12.1 I'm literally playing musical mods trying to figure out what mods run on what version of 1.12.
