Don't get me started on IT departments that mandate the use of old, buggy, 
insecure browsers that no longer have vendor support across their 
organisations! If their users get hit with browser-based attacks that 
compromise customer data the org could be liable.

If your customer is worried about losing sales by not supporting IE8 for a 
public facing site, and they are prepared to pay for the extra work 
required to support it, I guess that's their call. Or they could get their 
customers to pay:

React dropped IE8 support this year:

AngularJS dropped IE8 support several versions ago.

Even jQuery no longer supports IE8.

As Overmind says, it's time to let it die.
