This depends completely on the industry.

Maybe a dev tools startup etc. would accept the Industry Leader argument, but Retail for example would never pass up the revenue opportunity by dropping IE11 support.

I've always appreciated when libraries who drop IE11 support provide polyfills etc., or at least some notes on it, since the library author knows better than anyone which corners are not IE11 compatible.

This eases adoption in these other industries, instead of taking this hard stance which may sound good, but ends up limiting the # of devs who can use the library.

Good news is v1.9 supports IE11 and is pretty damn good already. A lot of the updates here are just default config options for tailwind, that you can add yourself to mimic 2.0
