I was just being breif. There are other problems:

"That’s right, even if an application is 64-bit, that is not nearly enough to qualify it for Catalina and Big Sur. Apple also requires fundamental changes in how an application handles installation, security, privacy, and access to system files, because of the exact hacker threat you mentioned, so a quick 64-bit update would not have been enough anyway." Conrad C.

It's in this thread that has some good points.

CS6 is no longer sold or supported. So no updates and it's not going to be retooled for newer MacOS systems. About your only chance is to go Windows if you can get a version for that platform.

Photoshop CS4-CS6 does have a 64 bit mode but support components such as the installer are 32-bit, so it's been out of the MacOS game since Catalina 10.15

Which will never happen.

Monterey does not support 32-bit. (I'm assuming your Acrobat Pro is as old as your Photoshop.)

Your choices are to stay with an OS that works with your software (if that's even possible) or to upgrade your software.

Yes , do no argue with people who say "I'm sorry to be the one to say this but loyal customers purchase upgrades. " I have been customer with verified purchases though nothing was added but cost. Get rid of couple butons, call it a different nme it is still he same PSD you remember back at the original. 16 bit 32 bit 64 bit . An add on to mke it work within the hire bit realm would shu off he subscripion slavery. Montery hs given me a laptop I use for one app the cost of couple grnd nd laptops I can't upgrade because I will lose those pps. Delightful.

CS5 is about 12 years old; CS6 is about 11 years old. In computer and software terms, that is ancient.

How long should a software company (Adobe, Microsoft, etc.) be required to update old software on a new OS?

Why does it matter how old it is? Apple kept a OS9 enviornment for years as it transitoned to OSX realizing that it was abusive to expect users to spend thousands on buying all new software every time the system changed. Unless you needs CS6 to do something radically different in Monteray there is no point to changing it. We have become accustomed to rich companies trying to extract as much money for the very same software. In Monteray I no longer use Adobe, I use Affinity , permanant licence, no subscription, no constant changes and no Adobe hack attacking my legal software and illegally monitering me. As I have 6 computers all but one has preMonteray software. One is still running Snow Leopard and connects seamlessly to the OSX network.
