Can we Drop the Quest 1 VRC Requirement?

As Meta how now retired the Quest 1 and is only providing basic updates, can we now drop the requirement to test on Quest 1 to be accepted into App Lab?

https://developer.oculus.com/resources/vrc-quest-performance-1/

I have a Quest 1 sat in my cupboard, gathering dust, solely to test my app before I submit to App Lab. If Meta, a $350 billion corporation, aren't supporting the device any more, why should indie devs be forced to!

(I'll email support also and post any useful response here)

From Oculus developer support

"While the Quest 1 may be retired, support for this platform still continues through to 2024. With that said, frame rates must meet the minimum for both platforms."

There's technically nothing stating that the experience must be the same on Quest 2 and Quest 1 though. Wondering if I could just load a spinning cube on Quest 1 😀.
