Comment (by masteradhoc):
Based on https://wordpress.org/about/stats/ PHP 7.2 dropped now below 5%.
Due to WordPress currently still supporting PHP 7.0 (1.71%) and PHP 7.1
(1.11%) based on current decision we're not able to also drop PHP 7.2
(4.96%) inside the same release.
I would assume it would be best for WP 6.5 to drop PHP 7.0 and 7.1 support
and early inform users that PHP 7.2 will be additionally dropped in WP
6.6. This would allow hosting companies and users to check and update
their used php version.
