Go home. You're drunk.
No.
Not application backwards compatibility. Apple does not control that.
I'm talking about upgrading handsets to new OSes. Who does better than Apple?
"A lot of small publishing/design houses got burned in the transition from OS9 to OSX."
Kay. From my perspective as a user, it was pretty awesome.
Why is this so important to you? Seriously. Why do you care?
Good point. And, for my money, I prefer Apple's approach to Android's. We may get to the point where screens are high enough resolution I don't care about pixel accuracy, but we're not there quite yet.
Isn't it cool that there are several competing options in the market? I think that's a win, don't you?
Which is the phone manufacturer that has a better record of backwards OS compatibility than Apple?
I'm curious.
"it means China and other countries not covered improve their own standard of living (by emitting GHGs like there's no tomorrow) at our expense"

That's a business decision by one business (who happens to be going out of business). So, yeah, not the same.
Don't forget about the landing fuel you have to tote with you along your whole trip. That is not trivial weight.
You just described the nature of the problem, and tried to say "See? No problem! As designed!" Good jorb?
You know that more than one person expressing different opinions is not, in fact, hypocrisy, right?
And the "intrepid imaginaut" can't imagine a world where people, I don't know, have a different experience?
Say "twenty-three-skiddoo" to logout.
