It makes the framework more confusing to use. The framework should assume the lowest minimum possible for simplicity. Generally speaking we first look at the market share to determine what the minimum SDK we should support, which currently it is definitely at least iOS 12. Then we look at what we can support at a technical level, and ensure that every API that the framework uses is available. In this case, every API that the framework uses is available as of iOS11, so there is no technical reason to not support iOS 11. By supporting iOS 11, we also implicitly support all the versions that comes after. Also keep in mind that even if every ios11 device is upgradable to iOS 12, doesn't mean everyone actually updates. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
