why bother?
Well, and for that matter, the same argument could be made for iOS and Android apps, too. MOST Android apps should and DO run on everything from Android 4.x (Ice Cream Sandwich) all the way back to 1.5 (Donut). MOST iOS apps will still run on most older versions of iOS. This is hardly a selling argument for their platform.
