Legacy baggage also comes at the cost of performance, which in the case of mobile devices, means reduced battery life.

As an app developer, it's immensely frustrating to have to keep updating apps to stay on top of the latest SDK.

As a mobile user, I delete apps that get flagged up as battery hogs.

So that leaves me with a fairly simple choice, and I keep stuff updated if I expect anyone to keep using it, and if I abandon it, I shouldn't be surprised when my users do the same.
