I've seen some mild demand for it on occasions where there's a debilitating bug in Chrome. Fixes almost never (never?) get backported, so if you want it, you have to upgrade off stable to the more bleeding edge, and then follow that release as it stabilizes, or wait. Sometimes this up/downgrading is just plain onerous. The two bugs that come to mind are a. a font bug whereby the wrong (fallback) font was selected; this happened quite often on Wikipedia and b. gestures would flat out stop working randomly. AFAIK, these are both long fixed, but the experience on stable during that time was pretty bad. Thankfully in the many years I've used Chrome, such bugs are exceedingly rare. As a developer, I wouldn't recommend an old browser solely for security reasons, but also so I can stop support ancient browsers sooner…
