I think eventually there will be more of an onboarding process for new stackers: i.e. "Getting Started on Stacker News". I imagine something like that could include All-Time Great Posts, as decided by the stackers.

I was thinking something like having another section next to random and listing evergreen posts there, but I think it should be done manually and someone has to choose which posts deserve evergreen status and which do not. This is probably not the style of this website format. It was just a thought.
