Comment (by chesio):

 > It seems currently 4.6% of WP installs is still using 5.2

 Coincidentally, ~4.3% of WP installs run WordPress 3.6 or older (ie. 4+
 years old and without automatic background updates option that has been
 introduced in 3.7 as far as I know).

 The 4.6% is still too big number to ignore, but I think more reasonable
 way to make decisions based on these stats is to apply them only to
 WordPress installs that are "actively maintained". We can argue what
 "actively maintained" means, but I don't believe that someone suddenly
 decides to hit the "Update WordPress" button after not doing so in 4+
 years...
