The sourcepawn compiler is always evolving with fixes and the occasional optimization (ty dvander), so sticking to the latest stable compiler is always a good idea. I could list pros and cons, but it's overwhelmingly pros.

Eventually, old style scripts will fall deeper into deprecation. I'm unsure if they'll ever outright break, but new features (1.7.3 and forward) won't have old style recreations. If you're writing scripts, I'd start at least using the new syntax for new plugins. Whether it's worth your time to update old scripts is up to you.

Older extensions won't need a higher sourcemod version unless they rely on a new feature. Old extensions should continue to work fine.
