I think somebody said, but there's the misconception that Apple can never do wrong by people who should know better.
On the other end of the spectrum, my IT department is rolling new laptops for everybody will l with Windows 10. The plan is to upgrade everybody "the day we can no longer have support for 10".
Waiting until the last minute to do something necessary is a corporate tradition along with pushing emergency changes on a Friday afternoon and asking how much the LTS support costs
It's not even waiting for the last moment. They are installing windows 10 on the new machines, that come with W11.
I mean XP didn't hit EOL until 2019 so you might have another 15 years of security patches left on 10.
