When you do that you'd have to port every single security patch and new feature manually into your fork. And it gets even worse: Because you deviate from the original implementation you continue to use outdated code that nobody is patching at all.
So you can absolutely do that, but in a year you'll have your own browser with tons of security issues and no manpower to find and fix them.
Basically you'd be using an old browser version.
