These are all reasonable arguments, and whole I could make a case for why I disagree about parts of this, I think the main take-away here is... Why doesn't anybody say those explicitly? For example, if I look at the Focal page for hammerhead, it doesn't mention anything about the Nexus 5 branch being EOL, nothing about discontinuing 32bit. In fact it implies that a release may be on the way, saying it may take some time for the device to get a new release."

I'm sorry, in not in a position to describe the attached image, but it is an except of the webpage reachable at https://devices.ubuntu-touch.io/device/hammerhead/release/focal/ as of 2025.01.21 approximately 22:40 UTC.

Dropped as in it fell on the ground and broke?

Anyway, like I said, all too often I see people give the reasoning that a device is simply no good anymore, despite there being nothing different about the device itself since the previous release, which is why I'm so dubious about projects' claims that they want to give life to old devices. I don't know what's worse to me - a project that keeps adding more devices and spreading their resources too thin, or a project that has, like, a moving window of devices they support, and a device could suddenly find itself on the outside of the window looking in, at any time, even though it is standing still.

And forgive me if this is not sufficiently anonymized, because I don't want to pick on this particular person at all, but see the attached image wherein a user asks if their device is going to get a build for the latest release ("Focal" in this context is the codename for a release), to which another user responds "doubtful, because your device is too weak. Maybe you should buy a different device." Too weak? It's the same device as it has always been! And we are trying to not buy new devices! That's the whole point!

From my perspective, as an older device owner, the only problem ...

From my perspective, as an older device owner, the only problem for me is that all these software projects eventually go from "our mission is to support older devices and keep them working for as long as possible!" to "we dropped support for your device because it's old. You should buy a newer device!" which... Uh... How does buying a new device help me avoid buying a new device for as long as possible? My old device works fine, you just stopped releasing builds for it...
