As minecraft updates, so do mods and people want to continue in their old save files--particularly for small updates like 1.16.4 to 1.16.5, but as far as I can see the loader is locked into 1.16.4 and it's impossible to update without creating a new profile

This needs to be a thing. We should be able to update custom profiles to new game versions. It should become an option once forge/fabric is released for said version. To combat mod incompatibilities, have individual mods disabled/locked until a compatible update is available. Just pop a warning when updating that says "Will most likely break existing worlds until all mods are updated".
