To be fair: given that Apple does not announce life cycle for older OS versions, they simply stop sending out security patches and you only find out ofter the fact, people running Mojave are in a slightly different situation.

It only became clear very recently that Apple had in fact stopped supporting Mojave because there was no Mojave version of the most recent security patch. And while they stop sending out security patches, they do send out updated Safari versions for instance, in other words, it is a bit of a mixed message.
