How about forcing companies to do being so wasteful with badly, badly oh so badly written software. Sure advances happen but nearly nobody _needs_ the equivalent of avx2048 on a phone. Windows XP lasted almost an entire generation in computing terms. Sure it probably wasn't the most fun thing to work on by the time it was retired but Microsoft kept that going as the 64bit era launched and pcie and x86 multicore became the norm. Saying it can't be done is just excusing not wanting to go back and fix things or maintain stuff.
