Point is they are End Of Life from the PHP developers side and as such not being developed, security fixed etc.

So for people running shiny new boxes or for instance a nagging WP install on the same domain, anything below 7.2 could be annoying.
Well, i was running version 5.2 for years till recently when i upgraded it to 7.2 finally , and nothing bad happened due it. So no need to rush with upgrade just because someone is telling you to do it
