Yes but that doesn't address the fact that people won't throw away their phone just because it doesn't have an update.

Plus user features for most people will be independent of the Android version since not many android features actually make it to Samsung's touchwiz/oneui/whatever-this-month for example

Eventually apps people care about stop supporting the old OS. I liked Android 4 so much and held to it for very long, but fewer and fewer apps were working with it
