It’s kind of fucked that we just accept that as an argument though isn’t it? Your desktop PC goes “out of support” when something physically requires hardware features or performance that isn’t present on the chip. Up until windows 11, you could essentially put a fully up to date and secure windows 10 on a 15 year old computer if it was beefy enough.
Now we put up with "my manufacturer doesn’t want to give me drivers for the device I bought but clearly don’t actually own, so it’s reasonable to pony up another $800 in 3 years to buy something new.
Android in the like 1.0 days installed and managed itself like a desktop is that could be installed on anything you could feed it drivers to. Why we as a society put up with anything less is beyond me.
