What is the issue with building for Windows 7 target on Windows 10/11 host? Not that the team is obligated to support ancient OSes, but I am not following their justification. If it is just the fact that they can't properly test if the build works on 7, then they could call it "best effort" support.

but then if it's untested how is it different from saying build it yourself? spending effort on making sure the windows 7 build runs without actually knowing that the build result works seems pointless
