I've rephrased it a bit to focus on "releases", not "versions":

  We aim at keeping the latest stable version of Org compatible with
  the *last three major releases of Emacs*.

  For example, if the latest release of Emacs is 28.x, then you can
  assume that the latest release of Org is compatible with Emacs 28.x,
  27.x and 26.x, but not with Emacs 25.x.

These paragraphes on Worg try to explicit reasonable expectations 
for users and are thus focusing on stable releases only.

Expectactions for development versions are another story: I am in
favor of not trying to commit to _any_ expectactions for Org's main.

For example, I would not mind a feature on main that relies on a new
feature in the Emacs development branch, as long as we manage to keep
the promise that the next Org stable is usable with the older Emacs
releases.
