Backwards compatibility is a double-edged sword. It’s cool that you can run an apk from 10 years ago but there should be a point where you say that’s enough and drop support from them. Looking at Windows.
We have tons of problems today due to overextenring backwards compatibility to a point in which it just crates more tech debt than the benefits it brings. Windows and X11 are great examples, at least Windows is still being maintained.
