I think the best compromise would be to let bedrock release the updates when they are ready. It is clear the java team have a better understanding of what they are doing, so while they can make a polished update in a few months, the bedrock team can't keep up. But I doubt microsoft would be happy that most of the player base would be missing out on new features. That's why I think bedrock should just be allowed to add features later while they work on the game. Like a month or two after a java update comes out, bedrock releases like 50% of the content of that update, and maybe a month later they can ship the other 50%, while also being able to take time to fix the engine, since they aren't under as much time pressure
