Why does software have to change to keep up with any of those? Old software can run on new hardware just fine.
Only if the old software happens to have drivers compatible with the new hardware, which it almost certainly doesn't.
If only the people pushing the new software had complete control over their old software, the new software, and the new hardware. Oh well. Clearly there's no way to preserve backwards compatibility here, it's not like Google controls every detail of their manufacturing lineup.
They could make driver updates. They don't have to make a whole new OS version.
