Not a fan of it, but what if the older versions still needed by some places get reverse engineered by AI and upgraded to be up to date? For some things you don’t need the latest, you just need what has worked for years. Just need to keep it air gaped from the internet, but that could be patched.

Old stuff shouldn’t be changed. As long as it’s offline and it’s reliable, it will keep chugging.
The only problem is when it doesn’t, parts replacement gets much more difficult.
Using AI would be antithetical to patching old software. That said, there are groups keeeping older OSes secure with fan patches.
