Agreed.

Apple stopped supporting HyperCard when? And under what OS? Yet we still see
"I have a HyperCard stack I want to convert" type questions popping up on
this list.

Sure, I'm not suggesting that you could make a living out of custom
HyperCard stacks, but I think it clearly illustrates that while software is
cheaper to buy than hardware many will keep buying software rather than
buying new hardware - until they can no longer run the software they NEED.
