Except that jQuery dropped support for older browsers in V2. In fact, jQuery 1 wouldn't run in IE before IE 6. Source[^]
So, while the team may know all about cross-browser issues, it doesn't mean they've fixed them all.

Good, I see marketing lesson 1 is assimilated. Let's switch to lesson 2 then.

... which is why they're still maintaining full feature parity 1.x. Splitting the code base into modern and legacy versions lets web sites that don't need to support legacy browsers serve a significantly (12%) smaller version of jquery. Sites that are doing it wrong and doing server side browser version string sniffing can send 2.x to most users and still feed 1.x to legacy IE.
My peanut gallery observation is that they should've stripped support from the android 2.3 browser from their 2.x build. When they first forked it, they said that Android 2.x browser was the worst remaining source of hacks in the code; and it seems likely to fade from the market much sooner than IE8 will Statcounter and Netmarketshare give very different estimates for how much IE8 is used; but neither of them is showing much movement in its share over the last year; while Android 2.x's share has plummeted from ~22% a year ago to 8% now.

Why is this "doing it wrong"?

<Insert any of the dozens of rantblogs about the evils of version string sniffing vs checking for capabilities and how doing so screws up modern versions of IE by forcefeeding them WTFeries designed for IE6/etc instead from the last 5 years of insider news here.>

To justify backup...[^]
Skipper: We'll fix it.
Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

You know what?
I think I did it too!

I've been lucky enough never to do this in a production environment, but I am well aware that but for the grace of God (and backups...) - we all go there.
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

What if every country had ninjas, but we only know about the Japanese ones because they're rubbish?
|
|
|
|

Japan actually has none; the French made that up to draw attention away from their own.

Justb imagine it, 1000s of highly trained men, skilled in the art of stealth retreat and singing La Marseilles.

Sounds terrifying. 1000 Cacofonixs making the heaven cry and rain forever? By the way the french name for this person is way better: Assurancetourix. Assurance = insurance, tourix (tout risque) = all risks.

I was gonna say; take this to the soapbox, but then you ambushed me with some backstabbing ninja talk.

The rest of the world does have them.
We just don't call them "ninjas", because it's a really stupid word.
ninja
ninnn-ja!
nin-nin-nin-ja-ja-ja!
Yeah, really gives the impression of a scary ghostly silent assassin.
