The second one, you'll only be able to update Adobe on your old MacOS up to a certain version and then if you want anything further you have to update the OS to achieve the new range of supported versions. Unfortunately in a corporate environment you have a lot of moving parts and you can't just always update everything even if it's new enough to support it. Since projects and their constituent dependencies won't always be compatible.
This seems more an Adobe issue than an Apple issue IMO. I don't know how quickly the HW becomes "obsolete" in the eyes of Apple (for example, what's the minimum time from buying a Mac to it not being supported?). If this is short, yeah Adobe should extend further. If it's 5+ years, I kind of understand.
I'm not defending apple, I have no love for them, just to be clear.
