From what I can gather, it sounds like things will keep working until something changes on the back-end that leaves the old Steam client unable to connect anymore. I don’t think they can’t say when that will be exactly though because it depends on future updates.
The problem is when those “older builds” rely on a connection to a back-end. If this was just a standalone piece of software that is one thing, but you can’t just let out-of-date clients that connect over the internet to run indefinitely.

Figures.
Most software I use that dropped support for Mojave already at least let me use older builds in peace.
I appreciate your trying to help clear it up.

The games I bought are stand-alone pieces of software. The gatekeeper needed to run those games is another story.
