End of support for OS X 10.4 and 10.5

Why pull support and remove functionality? Why not just drop support -- just stop updating the app but still allow basic functionality? There are still a lot of legacy machines that are still in use ...

I need 10.5.8 PPC to run 68k os9 emulation for accounts package with 20 years accumulated data. I like having that backed up by Dropbox but I guess there are other options I can look into.
Like everyone else I want to know why there is no option for "let the old app run", and to SEE the reasoning (which may well be reasonable in terms of security or whatever).
Where would be a good place to share ideas for lua/python/other scripts to provide single file get and send from Dropbox scripts?
Dropbox folk: would you support and help such ideas? It is tough not knowing your thinking on why the chop!!
