Eh no one wants to maintain and check all that old stuff or support people who bought something 10 years ago. If it works then great, if not then keep an old system around with that setup that supports it and make contingency plans when it inevitably fails.

Who cares what the people using the computer want, right? Fuck them. Developers don't like maintenance so everything needs to be burnt to the ground every 3 years so they can have fun reinventing the wheel again (usually worse than the last time). That's what personal computing is all about, after all, developers!
