The whining about the lack of compatibility with lenses more than 20 years old is equally meaningful as whining about the lack of Asahiflex compatibility of the LX back in 1980.
There is a major difference here. SM & K are completely different physically, but we are still living in the k-mount era, not the next generation mount yet. The real issue is not how many years Pentax chose to support, but they removed the coupling ring just to push the sale of current lenses (I am not saying they are wrong). However, you are correct if you only look at the number of years.
