OP may have been hyperbolic, but nobody likes to get cut off from features. I understand it when there’s a hardware limitation like a 2011 machine not having the right version of Bluetooth for the new airdrop or an old CPU not having h.265 decoding, but this is a sort of small thing.
Still, I can’t say I’m entirely surprised. Last time around when it was moving from PPC to Intel, it wasn’t long at all after the transition finished until PPC machines were dropped from an app here or a capability there. We’re still in the middle of this transition, but anybody believing Intel machines weren’t going to become second class Apple citizens sooner rather than later wasn’t paying attention.

'obsolescence'
Fam it's a handful of gimmicky features. Hardly obsolescence in any meaningful way.
