Jonesy, I think you're looking at this problem from the wrong angle.
Technology always advances, leaving older products obsolete. This is true
in any industry, and shouldn't be viewed so negatively. If every
generation of gear was compatible with the previous, there would be very
little improvement.

The new Shimano **** is lightyears ahead of the old stuff.

Your opinion, not necessarily shared by everyone.

To poopoo it simply because it's new is to be a retrogrouch lemming.

Good thing nobody is doing that.
