Maintainers cannot force users to update their node.

Anyone can submit a Bitcoin Improvement Proposal (BIP), but Bitcoin Core, a BIP-compliant editor must receive an approval from at least 90% of the miners.

Nodes do not auto update. Only after the approval the nodes get an option to upgrade to a new software version.
