Thats not always true, they keep some stuff that is a success for a long time, but they are also not afraid to drop there failures like ActiveX, SilverLight, VBScript, ...

And i am afraid blazer may be next.

Vbscript - deprecated, started 28!! Years ago

ActiveX - same, but 27! Years ago

Those were not failures. But have replacements.

Those are terrible examples tbh. A lot of businesses would sign immediately if they knew something was going to be supported for > 20 years. Additionally, vbscript owners should have long migrated to eg. Powershell
