No most thing’s definitely don’t work like this. I don’t expect my x86 program to stop working after a software update or not to work on new x86 CPUs that’s just ridiculous.
Also if you expect anyone to compile anything you probably haven’t shipped anything in your life.
ROCm is a pile of rubbish until they throw it out and actually have a model that would guarantee forward and backward compatibility it would remain useless for anyone who actually builds software other people use.

Your x86 program doesn't work on Apple Silicon without something equivalent to a recompile. Old operating systems very commonly can't run on bare metal new hardware because they don't have drivers for it.
Even the IR isn't actually machine code, it's just a binary format of something that gets compiled into actual machine code right before use.

Half the software people run uses JIT compilation of some kind.
