who would want to install old runtimes except devs in need to support older environments.

I just meant that users who have py26 <2.6.5 are "dying off" so to speak, as only users who installed a distro 4+ years ago and have not yet moved off of the now-EOL version have it.  All new installs or users on supported distros have modern py26 versions.
