Comment:

 I propose two options:

 Option 1:

 If browsehappy detects that a user's browse cannot be upgraded on their
 current platform, give the user a new message:  "This browser is no longer
 actively updated on your operating system, for the best !WordPress
 experience, you should switch to a new browser like Chrome, Safari, Opera,
 or Firefox." (with links embedded)

 Option 2:

 Update the old / insecure messages with an extra clause:  "... for the
 best !WordPress experience, please update your browser, or use the latest
 version of a different browser like Chrome, Safari, Opera, or Firefox."
