To me it feels more like the old "this site only supports IE6". Instead of checking which JS engine the user has, check for specific api support and fail gracefully.

Not BitTorrent, but I can see a world where e.g. Transmission dropping Windows support because of Microsoft policies.

Which company doesn't do that?
This seems like a tenuous analogy, to put it lightly.
