But in 4 years of an LTS release we actually don’t have a single one of those 3 left that were out when we released 5.x.0. Are we now supporting the ones documented when the initial minor release came out, or the latest 3 available at the time of the latest patch release? Especially when talking about macOS people tend to update to the latest one, so why support older ones.
The docs are a bit off here, as we do support future macOS versions, within the constraints of the branch policy.
