The post is likely V8-centric because it's discussing server-side JavaScript. As far as I know, pretty much everyone uses V8 for server-side JS because that's what Node is based on. And compatibility seems to be much less of an issue there as well, at least if all the "dropped support for Node version X" changelogs I read are any indication.
Not to say server-side JavaScript is necessarily a good idea. But if people are determined to make it work, I could see these sorts of changes happening that wouldn't make sense in a web browser.
