  That's how I understood it. It would be very entitled to say "Don't force me to update and support my old version until I'm ready". This move seems like the opposite of what we all expect: There's a new version, the one you are on is EOL, upgrade or beware. What was wrong with this, other than it didn't support their revenue goals?

    They’re bot saying update OR beware. They’re saying update OR your program is dead.

  There is a popular modern form of thought that developers should be the ones to decide which versions of their software are running sheets anywhere and what versions they are; that they are entitled to that level of control, and should exercise it because their users cannot be trusted to make an informed decision about running outdated and insecure software. I think it's paternalistic and egotistical but the usual counterpoint is grandma getting a virus because Windows is unknowingly out of date. With developer tooling that holds a bit less water IMO.
