it's fine by me that this was applied, but can we somehow assert this
assumption with an early `die if $apiver < 7` ? (maybe don't die if the
apiver could not be queried/parsed, i.e. is undef, if there are
legitimate situations where this can happen).

While just one major release difference might be seen as enough, we still
have users that are doing some more funky stuff on upgrades of clusters,
so if it's somewhat easy to assert the assumption, doing so can
definitively only help to improve UX.
