What is a "little longer" in your opinion? 1 year? 5 years? I would hate
for runrev to spend several months to make something backwards compatible

further complicate the code base in non-trivial ways.

Even if try to set aside the developer salaries and technical debt, it's not like it's going to get any less dangerous using an unsupported OS version than it was half a decade ago when it stopped getting security updates.

Every year an unsupported OS is used, the only people writing system-level software for it are organized crime rings.
