Why Device Tree Changes With Newer Android Version?

I Have Oreo Based Stock Rom And Its Relevant Device Tree. I Want To Build Latest Version Of Aosp Or LineageOs Then Why Do I Need To Port My Current Device Tree To Newer Android Version. As Far As I Knows Device Tree Is A Hardware Description And Should Not Change With Android Version Because The Hardware Information Is Constant. The Kernel Tree And Vendor Tree Remains Same And Dont Change With Newer Android Version Then Why Device Tree Changes With Newer Android Version.
For Example, The Device Tree Based On Oreo Will Not Work With Android 12 We Need To Port It First.But The Kernel Tree And Vendor Tree Which Was Working In Oreo Will Continue To Work Further Without Any Modification.

Sometimes the partition structure is changed from one version to the next, this changes the tree in order to compile the ROM with the correct partitioning structure.
