well, I'm feeling in rare form today, so to show a point:
lets say I bought "Car V1.0" from Acme Motor Co,
they have just released new tires (Version 2.0),
and I can upgrade my V1.0 tires to V2.0,
but if I do I can only drive at 35 miles per hour
because my engine doesn't have enough power.
I can't really expect Acme to drive out and bring me a new car
with a V2.0 engine just because I want new tires,
because the V1.0 car runs just fine with V1.0 tires,
and does everything that it was meant to do when I bought it.
