Unless the library code were in some way self-updating or had some server side component, I think it's disingenuous to call the library code embedded in my app anything other than static. I assume by "not static" you are referring to decision to continue improving it, which I think is great and affords you the ability to sell me a newer version.

The problem is that unlike „server-side computing“ the web browser and also mobile platforms like iOS and Android move pretty fast. Things change, and things break. Having a „stable version“ is great until a browser vendor decides to update/break an API an the library breaks. Now you have feature updates and hotfixes for an infinite number of „stable“ versions.
