Could you provide some examples of this? From knowledge of the pipeline operator proposal[0], moving fast and breaking things isn't always a priority.
It goes without saying that Babel is an external collection of modules that don't fall under the TC39 umbrella, so they're able to iterate at a much greater cadence than the official specification (and you obviously need to explicitly opt-into using it.)
