At this point I dont trust common sense in anybody inside Microsoft.
They are doing dumb shit for about 5 years now, and killing MS Office, a brand thats market leader for more than 30 years prooves that anybody who had conservative opinion on how software should be built have already abandoned the ship or was kicked out of it.
Now is being run by "visionary" marketing people, and the only way left is down.
5 years? try 10
Windows 10 released with the ability for the user to not consent to updates REMOVED
the direction of travel from that point on was clear
consent was no longer necessary
the OS is purpose is no longer to serve the owner of the computer, it is there to serve Microslop's whims
and that was the point I went full linux everywhere
