Actually having an unofficial upgrade path for technically inclined users while "encouraging" non-savvy users to upgrade to a better experience by buying a new phone sounds like a decent strategy.
It can't help that OS development is so uncoupled from hardware development. Maybe Google should have a hardware roadmap instead of just springing new requirements and features on users/OEMs? That way midrange phones can have a chance of being upgraded without resorting to 3rd party roms.
