If people needs to get a build support for an OS that is not supported by the maker, then they can still build it themselves with some effort or pay someone to do it. :) There is no reason to handcuff ourselves when it is an impediment to doing what we like and do on a volunteer basis. Not supporting non-supported OS' when we have better things to do, like getting python3 to work, is just a reasonable decision considering the time we have at our disposal. We are only dropping "legacy" systems when it becomes a pain to maintain. As it is now, we are not just supporting the latest macos version.
