Mixed Oxygen environment versions 19.1 and 21.1

Are they any issues with using both v19.1 and 21.1 if they both use the same project files and custom network-accessible frameworks. Version 21 has more features and hence preferences (project file differences). If a 21.1 user creates an XPR file, will the 19.1 users be able to use it? Does 19.1 mer...

I did not provide one critical piece of context. This transformation is going to run as part of a batch process. I'm using Oxygen as an XSLT development and debugging tool, and the use of the Refactor functionality is not an option.
