Or reassuringly stable if you are supporting an enterprise. Given Google's planned abandonment of support for older browser versions in their applications, there may be a ready market for a more stable browser platform.

If you need stability, don't upgrade. It's the choice of large corporations everywhere. :)

Just curious. Is there a easy way to prevent Chrome from upgrading?

Yes. Use an Android device with Chrome. Most users are stuck with whatever came from the phone. iPhone far outperforms in terms of % upgrades.
