The main product at work is a desktop application. That means that every OS version / hardware configuration of every platform that any user might install it on can have its own bugs. It means that we support multiple major versions rather than being able to just always deploy the latest version. It means that a user might want to have multiple versions of the software installed side-by-side on the same machine. It doesn't change the fact that more users means more use cases.
