Does anyone know if there is an official statement for Surface Pro 3 end of life and end of support?

Hi I have checked that site but it does not put any hardware end of life date.
For support for surface pro 3 as long as it is on windows 10 latest version it will always be support or will there be an end of support for surface pro 3 hardware with windows OS version?

At one point, Microsoft said that CPUs and/or SOCs may not be supported any longer on Windows 10, but at this point we haven't seen anything like that.

The only scenario I could see is if there is finally a viable Hardware/Firmware and Software solution to mitigate Side-channel attacks (aka - Spectre/Meltdown).
