you will always have idiots thinking "old is stable" and it is your choice to do not support customers with such setups and you have to define minimum requirements for projects this has nothing to do with LTS or not LTS as example: we require php5.3 and if somebody has a unusable hoster the domain is transferred to our infrastructure and all problems gone away
