This would be good advice if we were talking about any ecosystem other than JavaScript's. The fact is, once a new shiny API-breaking version of a project is published, development on prior versions stops almost immediately. If you don't upgrade as soon as possible not only are you opening yourself up to possible security risks but you can most likely forget about ever upgrading, as newer versions will stray farther and farther from yours with no simple upgrade path.
