Because there will be no more security updates of firmware, drivers, kernels, etc., all while there are monthly high/critical CVEs.
Something which in the context of a thread about banking apps seems quite relevant too.
If they banned all outdated roms why not but you can use all the banking apps on something not updated since 2019 if it's stamped by Google

Exactly. The User should decide when their device is "end of life" not the device manufacturer.
