Nah, they need to keep all phones in OS parity for security purposes.

They already have fragmented mobile OS systems.

Mobile OS should be forced 5 years of security updates without forcing full OS updates.

Thats not a good security model. Allows too much fingerprinting. All devices should run the same immutable OS.
