Comment (by dd32):

 It's worth noting that although these older PHP's are EOL'd by PHP, some
 linux distributions will continue to support security updates for them for
 years to come (LTS releases).

 For now I'd encourage plugins who want to increase their minimum
 requirements to simply follow the deactivate-on-activation route.
