It may not be a matter of not _wanting_ to upgrade their operating
system.  They may be stuck using it for one reason or another, while
at the same time they may want to use the same version of Vim on all
their systems and may want to use the features of the latest
version.

I worked in a lab where we had an antique PC that IT really wanted
to get rid of.  However, it ran a proprietary program that
controlled some important hardware and the program was not available
for newer OSs.  We left it off the network.

Regards,
Gary
