You are mentioning a domino effect, but the main goal is beneficial in itself, increasing security. I hope people posting here are not using Windows XP in 2024, or have not updated their Linux packages since 2017.

This will limit phones without longterm software support. The ones which don’t provide decent enough software support will be left in the dust.
Hopefully a small pain which will encourage better behaviour overall in the future. Hopefully.
