FWIW, a comment from someone who is disinterested in OS X:

You could probably make your life easier by not supporting more
than Apple does. Eg on the net I read:

    Apple is only supporting Mac OS X 10.9 – 10.11. Apple stopped
    providing security updates for Mac OS 10.8 and earlier versions with
    the release of Mac OS X 10.11 (El Capitan) in 2015.
