A fine vintage: Wine has run Microsoft Solitaire on Linux for 25 years

Sure, but it's entirely reasonable for me to point out that 'Platinum' is nothing of the sort when it's being barely tested in limited configurations by amateurs.

You're also right Windows 3.1 is generally irrelevant these days, but if Wine's aim is to faithfully run Windows apps, it should also be expected that older APIs are now the most stable. That's by no means the case.

As mentioned in other comments, wine staging was dropped and quickly resurrected, because too many Wine users want to run Windows games..
