BTW, I will support LC 6.7 in most addons for 2022-2023!

A few users still need it. Plus I like to benchmark with it
and perform some debugging there.

(After mid-2023, I'll gradually start moving past 6.7.)

Yes! But LC 9 is getting there with optimization lately.
Once a version of LC 9/10 beats LC 6.7 on most tasks,
that will become my new benchmark to beat.

Same here, for me LC 6.7 was more stable than 5, 7, or 8.
All of which I also used for projects. 9 is pretty good.

Best wishes,
