Is it a breaking change to drop older versions of Laravel in a minor release of a package? I think not, since the newer version simply won't install if you use an old version of Laravel. Please vote, but also leave a reply with your reasoning.

This week's Laravel release has a cool new "withHeartbeat" method on lazy collections. The method invokes a callback at regular time intervals while the collection is being enumerated. Example in screenshot. 📸 Contributed by Joseph Silber. 🫡
