I understand the premise fine. I’m just saying it’s an unrealistic expectation.

For example, “should continue working exactly like it did” sounds nice, but what happens when the company is out of business and your server’s kernel needs a kernel patch due to a security issue? Sure the server still works, but you probably shouldn’t be using it if you in fact want something that’s private/secure.
