Here it is explained why this is not possible that easily. Because
libzypp depends on hal to identify hardware that is present (to select
software that fits) and hal does not know about ISA/PnP.

Has also a workaround.

I dont understand your abstraction that the trend is to make older
hardware unsupported. The OS runs fine on this hardware. You "just" need
to use the workarounds. What you are asking to do is not to support
older hardware but to fix inconveniences with it. That is what people are
refusing and that is perfectly fine imho.
