Yes, but we're supposed to ignore reality: 67% of devices run iOS 17,
19% run iOS 16, 8% run iOS 15 = 94% of devices are running the three
most recent versions of iOS. As you have shown, Apple is patching iOS 17
through iOS 15. And just like every operating system vendor, Apple
patches known bugs in the most recent releases of its operating systems
first and in older versions later. Naturally this means that if you are
running an older version of an operating system, some bugs may not
be patched as quickly (or at all if it's a really old version). Again,
this isn't exclusive to Apple's operating systems. It's fairly standard
practice in the industry. But badgolferman and his best bud, Arlen,
definitely want to paint it as an Apple-exclusive thing.
