The iPhone 5C won't update past iOS 10 so Apple will keep the signed version of that around and you can find 5C's for cheap. I mean if you really want to keep using 2009 apps. (I am not claiming that this is at all a reasonable work-around, just that there is a work-around.)

That's a good point. They can be stupid and inconvenient about it, but it's not making this stuff completely inaccessible.

You can still download iOS 5 for the original iPad and restore it.

The newest version of iTunes still supports the first generation iPod as far as I know. I know it still supports the first generation iPod Touch.
