  • This seems like pure speculation. The relative number of people below this spec is probably not worth it for them to focus on this. Besides their explicit support for modding allows them to improved sales value. Consider for example Skyrim. It was re-released so many times and people kept buying it and mods allowed it to look great even years after its release. I think by narrowing their scope they can focus on development of a good core and by leveraging their mod community it can run on older or higher hardware. Win win in my opinion.

    I find the “gotta have the jack” camp quite amusing. As wireless protocols become better and better, I don’t miss having a jack on my devices. In fact I prefer not tearing the cable when moving from my pc to do something. The lack of a plug is not a net loss but also focuses the hardware to do something else. Personally I really like usb C being truly universal. One good cable can connect different devices ranging from monitors, headphones, microcontrollers, HIDs and so on. Input interfaces come and go 🤷
