Not entirely correct, software often has to be updated when new
operating systems (i.e. Windows) are released, but okay, I get your
point ;)

But isn't this my point? QPC *is* a "hardware" (or rather "target")
platform in this sense. And there is often a *huge* difference,
software wise, if my software has to run on QPC, QL2K, uQLx or
QemuLator.

No, not really. There are emulators running QDOS and there are
emulators running SMSQ/E. And that's only where the differences start.
But I don't want to drag this argument out any further, I hope I made
my point and that's okay then.

The QPC dev team consists of one person, namely me, just FYI ;-)
