How is it outdated when the versions on the Play Store are automatically built with the open source version, which got an update 7 hours ago? Even if I had used a previous version, my current version is up to date by now.

He is referring to the fact that Kiwi is based on a mix of different Chromium versions of 2019. Chromium does new release almost every month. It's difficult to keep track of Chromium modifications with such large forks (and Chromium had lot of performance issue at the end of 2019 too with stuttering and lags).

UCBrowser for example is an engine of 2017, Samsung Internet from 2019, etc

You have not answered to the user's concern whether his browser is up to date with all the security fixes found in Chromium after v77.
