The beauty of it, in a way, is that if someone really relies on support for that, there might be way to fork the kernel to keep supporting it. It might be a big initial task, but then again, maybe not. Support was there up until very recently, and if you have such specific requirements, you might have the skill/resources to just maintain it. It’s not like you’d have to start from scratch.
