I have no particular opinion to which degree older Emacs versions should be supported, but I remember the following message:

Org is made of many areas and partial backward-compatibility can
still be useful.  When people report compatibility problems with
Emacs <26, we can guide them so that they enhance org-compat.el.

It is not because we don't promise compatibility for Emacs < 26
that we should prevent backward-compatibility for Emacs < 26, and
the all-or-nothing approach would actually prevent it.
