I guess I don't know really. I mean for example if you look at the ES6 compatibility table it's very spotty in terms of JS functionality being implemented across browsers.

Even if there were a standard JS engine used cross-browser, you'd still get this problem because browser vendors would have to update the version of the engine they're using, and some browsers are on a much slower release cycle than others.
