That's not going to be an issue with devices already sold. And if developers of future devices can't handle it they should probably be fired from their job.

It's not a question of whether future developers can "handle" it. It's a question of whether the additional time required to maintain it is worth the cost. Maintenance isn't free. It takes time, and every little bit adds up.

Also, devices already sold often get updates, so it's not even just about future devices.
