I don't think it's true that we force the latest TLS version to be
used.  The comment says:

        /*
         * We use SSLv23_method() because it can negotiate use of the highest
         * mutually supported protocol version, while alternatives like
         * TLSv1_2_method() permit only one specific version.  Note
that we don't
         * actually allow SSL v2 or v3, only TLS protocols (see below).
         */

IIUC, this is specifically so that we don't force the use of TLS 1.2
or TLS 1.1 or TLS 1.0.

It could well be that there's something I don't understand here.
