Luckily there are no plans to remove support for macOS versions :-) For master and 3.9 we can build on macOS 11 and deploy to macOS 10.9 and that won’t change. For 3.8 that doesn’t work yet, but backporting is just boring work. For 3.7 and earlier this will never work, those branches are closed for development.
