    Wouldn’t this be horrendous on an information security level? Thousands of exploits patched since this version of Android.

      Might be so obscure that no active exploits remain in the wild.

      Anyway most apps refuse to install on anything older than 9.0 now.

        Might is a keyword there. I wouldn’t wanna find out. Might be fine if you restricted the way you use it in certain ways I suppose.
