Comment (by elypter):

 imagine doing some research for a historical movie in the 19 century. you
 find a historical buiding from 1820 put in some chairs and a table from
 1800 and put some plates and cutlery from 1915 on it. you think it might
 not be 100% historically accurate but it seems legit.

 now imagine someone 200 years in the future who is trying to see how
 software in the early 21 century was. he gets a pc from 2020 and tries to
 install an os from 2000 to run software from 2015. as you might expect
 this will probably fail.

 for people in the future this century will be the century of wastefulness.
 therefore i have no understanding for people who are even trying to speed
 this throwaway cycle up.
