Curious what the use cases for iOS 10 are? This isn't a criticism of your comment but more just wanting to learn why a user might still be using iOS 10?

iOS 10 is the final version which runs on 32-bit devices, and there's a decent number of those out there still. Xcode 14 has dropped support for 32-bit iOS, which by extension means it can't support iOS 10.

I would like to know this as w. I would have thought most people (iPhone 6, iPhone 6 plus) on iOS 10 can get iOS 12?

Apple does not limit minimal version of iOS during the submission process - which is a signal that this version is supported.
By removing the debugging ability it's almost pushing the responsibility onto publishers/developers to say "hey, we don't support iOS 10 anymore - we are these bad guys".
In a case when we would like to provide the best possible experience to all players (even if the market share is less than 1%) - I consider as a regression, an unnecessary change and complication.
