MS-DOS, for example. Or old Windows versions. Emacs can work on many
systems and there is no reason to avoid supporting more OSes when we do
not have to.

I am curious if users running Org mode on MS-DOS or Windows and reading man pages using WoMan exist. I mentioned Android since it may be handy to have man pages in your pocket. However being on-line (in its modern meaning, not when man pages appeared), it might be more convenient to use https://manpages.debian.org/ https://man.archlinux.org/man/ due much better heuristics for cross-references than used in man.el.
