> Yes, business decision of time and money. When everybody says that you're losing money and time by providing better service, and lower quality is OK, management will jump on it, because, monies. Often that "saving money" is just externalizing the cost onto your users. Especially in mobile development. Instead of putting in the tiny amount of effort it takes to continue support for older devices, developers just increase the minimum required OS version, telling users with older hardware to fuck off or buy a new phone. Another example is when you don't take the time to properly optimize your code, you're offloading that cost onto the user in the form of unnecessarily higher system requirements.
