I got something similar in a requirement specification once:

"Resolution supported: Max" "OS support: The latest one"

🤦🏼

"OS support: The latest one” is not that bad of an requirement...

If they complain like "why doesn't this work on Windows Vista, on IE8" - you can just point to the specs and say you only support the latest OS.

So basically you only support the latest Nightly Build of Ubuntu, since that's the current latest OS

You don't even need to support anything older than the last windows hot fix with requirements like that.

Why support windows when you can argue that linux has a newer OS?

I am humbled by your chess of many D's.

This is completely reasonable, but requires significant CI infrastructure
