I think something like this was proposed actually, but was thought to potentially fragment the web too much.

I wonder if it would also mean an inherently more complex runtime with correspondingly complex debugging. At the moment you have a single JS environment you run and debug in. If we began tiering it by versions, what would that look like for day to day development? You’d no longer track just browsers but versions of JS running in each.
