I don't understand why these folks are saying "break it".
But the post you refer to didn't say that?
I know. My point was that I didn't understand why people are saying to break something that works, when there's no end benefit or spared headache at this point in time. It works, it doesn't harm anything, so why break it just because you're feeling capricious?

Down the line? Yeah, sure, I can understand it being a pisser for the dev team to keep support for an aging OS, and I regard that as an inevitability for a game engine that's always in active development. But for the meantime, it doesn't NEED to be broken. Graf himself said as much, Rachel agreed, so they actually *restored* Win7 support in 4.12.2 with a simple change. So what's there to gain from deliberately breaking it because "it's not the new thing, therefore is bad"?

EDIT: Sorry for the necrobump! You can tell I don't visit here often...
