Game works fine if you're on an OS from the last decade

Yes.

It did.

It could still, same as it does right now. The downsides of running that OS do not change this fact.

Until just recently, it was obviously feasible to use Windows 7 for this modern game. Unlike MS-DOS. Unlike your insulting dismissal, pretending 'waah I want it' is anyone's argument here. Because apparently you can't deal with the difference between 'the reasons aren't good enough' and 'there are no reasons whatsoever,' so you just call people babies.
