IE 9 was released only 11 days after WebGL was standardized.

So? It didn't prevent other browsers for having a mostly working implementation that they could improve upon with time.
And they supported those mostly working implementations for about 6 weeks. Microsoft supports their releases for years.
Is that even true now that IE11 keeps itself auto-updated to the latest major version?
The support lifecycle still will be the same as far that I can tell.
IE has had auto-update since IE9. IE9 is in the process of being auto-updated to IE10, unless auto-update has been disabled.
