Certainly a factor any company can use to make their decision. As long as the CEO understands the consequences (possible jail time) if anything goes wrong and you have your audit trail of telling them, then like many smaller companies do, they can lag behind. When it is too late to order the last co-existent release they can get, they are then blessed with doing an unsupported upgrade. And paying the price of that event, too.
Now if they have a policy about using supported software and having current patches on their other servers then you do not need to justify upgrades on the mother-of-all-servers. System z is just another server.
