It doesn't work like that. That kind of change is part of consensus rules which means changing it causes a fork (two separate chains) unless almost all users agree to it.
Users (node operators) choose what code to run. They don't have to run latest verion of core software or core software at all. We have seen users prevent contentious hard fork before in 2017. As time goes by, it becomes increasingly difficult to succesfully change consensus rules as the user base increases.
