Putting in a user hostile feature in a security update, leading to people to not update, doesn't sound too smart to me.

  Why? Catalina has lots of security improvements so it's a net positive for security if more people upgrade.

    But it's a net minus for usability that it can't run 32-bit software any more. That makes it a no-go for some of us, and Apple knows that, so all the nagging to “upgrade” is pointless anyway.

      So because 0.5% of people have some dodgy 32-bit software that they cannot or have not updated, Apple should just not bother trying to make the rest 99.5% of people update? Doesn't seem smart.

        I didn't say that. But taking away the option to explicitly tell the OS to stop nagging me is still a user-hostile move. So, you are saying that all 32-bit software is by definition “dodgy”? But let's break it off here since I realize that disagreeing with you may not seem smart.
