Releasing dead software that is used only to support dead hardware?

At least you can still make use of that hardware, many companies should take note of this. You can make hardware and software that doesn't die once someone pulls the plug on the other side.

Still, of course it would've been better to have released it sooner.

I think half of Tofino's complexity was in their compiler. So it may inspire new hardware vendors to reuse it in some contexts.
