"...even security and driver updates may be withheld."
Given the level of risk Microsoft products hold against the United States, to include National threats within the Federal government, this statement is basically complete and utter bullshit.
There's a difference between "works" and "supported". And there always has been.
Windows 11 may install and work on some hardware, but that doesn't mean Microsoft will support it. If you get it working, bully for you. But don't expect Microsoft to spend time and resources on keeping it working, or patching edge-case problems in an unsupported configuration.
That's the way it's always been. Why is it a surprise now?

Even Microsoft knows this.

And they will run much, much longer than that, with the support of Canonical.
