They don't, much like Bitcoin the best they can do is publish code that node operators may or may not decide to use.
It is true though that Monero has historically been more flexible with backward-incompatible changes, with the full support of the community.
Bitcoin tends to be far more conservative.
Perhaps this is a good thing and we need both.
Or just save with Bitcoin and spend with Monero. Best of both. Makes your concerns of consensus change (valid or not) moot if you aren't accumulating it.
