First of all, it is weird that the ROS2 TSC discusses about the
ROS1 EOL. ROS1 is not in the scope of the ROS2 TSC charter, as far
as I read it.

Second, there are enterprises promoting products and services to
customers based on ROS1. It might be preferable if the TSC could avoid
talking in such frivolous manner about the EOL of ROS1, in official
communications. Part of promoting the ROS ecosystem as industry-ready
is a professional handling of communication.
