But aren't you missing the point? Ubuntu Touch is about to be replaced and the replacement cannot automatically support previews models. That support has to be manually added to the new system. I think it is reasonable to expect and even demand, that Canonical makes sure that the devices that were sold with Ubuntu, are supported by the new system. From Canonical's perspective, it would be really bad marketing not to do this, so I think they will.
They shouldn't add support for new devices in the old system, knowing that this will become obsolete a few months from now. That would be nonsensical. What they should do, in my opinion, is to get the current devices ported and make it as easy as possible for users to flash those devices to the new system. Then they should allow current users to use the new system on their devices for a while to confirm that everything is really working as they should. After all, with massive changes, you always get the potential for regressions. When things have been tested by actual users, then they should add support for new devices to the new system. Nobody has argued that there should be no new models, only that there shouldn't be any new models right now.
