I feel you. But the challenge is supporting ancient apis and abis over time greatly complicates the underling runtime. There’s a natural tension between flexibility for the evolving system that adapts to modern needs and techniques and hardware and one that runs ancient runtimes in perpetuity. Things have gone back and forth over time and the winner tends to be the simplest one, which is apis stay stable over some lifetime until some well advertised horizon then things stop working if they don’t make the effort to evolve. Just like I don’t expect to be able to plug in a old mainframe RLO drive into my MacBook M2Max and have it work, you can’t plausibly expect ancient runtimes to work forever. That said, a lot of effort goes into writing emulators, and I’d expect this specific software will see a second life at some point
