How about be upfront and let the user make an educated decision based on performance or longevity rather than a legal one from just the sole manufacturer?

Where did I agree to updates that slow down the phone? Some hpones even try to sell you it'll work for 2-3 versions then backtrack and say nevermind buy a new one.

No one has integrity because no one builds anything of value for a while. It's inherited and they skip out because they saw it work out in the past.

They could put effort to clean up and optimize but they move on once it's literally not profitable

Are you referring to iPhones? The current iOS version works with all phones introduced since 2012.

I don't remember any Android manufacturer besides Google promising updates and there is only for 18 months.
