This may be something of a warning before macOS goes Apple Silicon only.

Consider Apple's transition from PowerPC to x86: the first intel Mac shipped in 2006; in 2008 Apple released Mac OS X 10.6/Snow Leopard which was intel only.

In 2020 Tim Cook said the Apple Silicon transition would take about two years and that Apple would "continue to support and release new versions of MacOS for Intel-based Macs for years to come" - without specifying whether "years" is 2, 3, or more.
