PolySharp provides generated, source-only polyfills for C# language features, to easily use all runtime-agnostic features downlevel. Add a reference, set your C# version to latest and have fun! 🚀 -...

Nah, it definitely does, you get a compile error stating "Runtime Type XXXX not found" for whatever types were missing. Happens to me all the time.
there haven't been any breaking runtime changes since, like, C#5 or 6? Only new built-in types being added.
