Perhaps tempering the statement to "All QUIC versions are encouraged to register

I think even that is too strong. Maybe something like "The IANA registry at <x>
contains the values of all standardized versions of QUIC, and may contain some proprietary
versions. However, other versions of QUIC can be expected to be seen in the Internet at any
given time." Or something like that?

We have seen variants of "secure handshake" in which the version was set
to a random number that identified an handshake encryption context at
the receiver. That seems like a completely legitimate usage, but IANA
registration would not make any sense whatsoever.
In short, network devices should expect to see versions of QUIC that are
not registered with IANA.
