It's still possible to file bugs against EOL versions using the BSA.
For example:
https://www.libreoffice.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=71150

I think we can remove all of the versions from
unsupported-versions.txt and blacklist all of the EOL releases by
adding them to in version-blacklist.txt. My thinking would be to add a
single version "Older" to the drop-down list and use that as the
trigger for when the "please update" message appears.

Or perhaps we can just tweak the code so that whenever anything in
unsupported-versions.txt is selected, we not only show the "please
update" message, but we also hide the text-entry boxes and submit
button?
