CloudLinux 7 and CentOS 7 End of Life Update

What @bellwood said - the main issue is really development effort. It just doesn't make sense for us to support something that will be made EOL so soon. As an example, we wouldn't want to spend months on a release that comes out in March only to have the underlying software lose support in April - that just doesn't make sense from a development perspective.

What about an OS recommendation that will work with the new version of Cpanel for a server that requires php 56 along with php 7&8? Unfortunately I need to run php 56 for a very important script on one of the websites on my server. Is there an OS that Cpanel supports in this regard?

I'd suggest looking at CloudLinux and their alt-php. They support/backport security fixes to old PHP and it works fine with cPanel.
