How are they related? What does the termination of support for a
ten-year-old version of Python have to do with forcing everyone to
mobile devices that they don't own?

You might as well ask if after 2020 there will be no further support
for OSX, or no further support for compilers other than gcc, or no
further support for 64-bit computers.
