Support for PHP7 has been discontinued. It's a matter of security, and performance is a plus. Upgrading systems has its cost, but the cost of data loss or leakage, exploitable through software that will not be patched anymore, will cost you even more. |

True. But given how zealous humans are [not] about bothering to patch / update / replace all their non-PHP computer hardware "when security"...
Re-skimming the article - yes, it definitely has a very heavy "New and Shiny!" emphasis. The security argument would go far better with:
https://www.php.net/supported-versions.php

etc...
