I think we would be asking the same question with other tech companies like Microsoft, Apple and the like. Where they stop support for updates on their previous OS.

I think, generally there is reasonable plan why they are doing this.

And I know the feeling and frustration at times but I got use to it and learned to accept such policies.
Have a lovely day,
