The parent comment says this - anything _older_ than XR or XS is no longer supported

> Any model more than 5 years old (Xr and Xs) are essentially not being updated and not secure. So an iPhone 1, 3, 5, 6, 7, 8 and X are all not secure and most people who use the iPhone are totally aware of this.

That reads very much like X's are not supported. The 2nd sentence even says it explicitly.

That was about the literal iPhone X (the letter X). The iPhone Xr and Xs (roman numeral 10) are still supported.

It’s made more confusing by the fact that the comment omits all the S models from the list of unsupported models (along with the iPhone 4 for some reason).

So at a glance one could assume that the XS is lumped in with the X just like the 6S is lumped in with the 6.

Sorry for my poor drafting. I agree with your comment.
