It’s 100% correct, but iPhone 6 came out in 2014, twelve years ago! That seems reasonable. Also, would an Android of similar vintage fare better?

Why does that matter? Even if it was released 20 years ago, why the hell should Apple (or any company for that matter) dictate if a developer can make an app for an old device or that a user wishes to use that app!? With Android, the developer doesn't need to depend on the "App Store", or even care about it, to distribute their app - any Android user can directly download and install the app through other means on their old or "outdated" device.
