Trying to support that legacy scenario where certain hw may or may not

Nobody is asking Fedora to provide support for fixing old hardware if it
breaks. All we are asking for is for Fedora to continue running on old
hardware that is *not* broken.
Yes I got that it's the hw version of "if it builds let's ship it, even
if upstream is dead" approach.
The thing is we could elimination so much of technical debt in Fedora if
we would drop the legacy bios support and could move the distro quite a
bit forward in coming releases if we did but from the looks of it, it
seems to have been already decided to "form a sig" and drop this
proposal so meh Fedora 40 then...
