My fear is that Apple will reduce the software/hardware lifetime a lot by using this specialized AI, security and whatever chip features they now want to add to the CPU. And i fear it will make software lose their lifetime too.

And this in our niche here where many are using it as long living database solution. So many macOS software fails on updates already for example the often mentioned “Curio” from 2 years ago doesn’t work on Catalina.

By the way, at least Mark Bernstein answered my email about Tinderbox. Saying that he will get his development machine next week and start playing and porting with it. No answer from DevonThink so far.
