This is very simple, really:

Any browser that implements this, I will not use.

So any webpage that requires that API to be present, I will not be able to use. If your webpage requires this, I will not be a user of your website.

It is really that simple.

A hobbyist I found that sells vintage computer replicas uses Wix to host his site. My older machines with an older Safari (OS has peaked, Safari version capped out on those devices) are apparently disallowed on Wix sites. "Your browser is too old..."

No doubt Wix is doing this for my own protection.

I can definitely see the majority of the web going in a similar direction.

Sounds great in theory but I'd suspect that you'd cave pretty soon after your bank adopts this (or whatever essential site/service you aren't considering is captured here).

There are a lot of banks, and jumping ships and reopening my account elsewhere is always a choice.
