For example EU has regulation that requires vendors to have spare parts

manufactured in 2012 ) and every process,workflows and decision being
bound by that.
Lack of availability of original spare parts does not mean that the hardware
suddenly magically stops working for everybody.
No but it does mean that they cant run indefinitely
And there needs to be a number on this to adjust users expectation and
10 years is a reasonable number from a business, parts and
recycle/re-use availability,
What is unreasonable is to be expecting that it's supported indefinitely
from OS and or HW vendors.
