I don't mind Microsoft attempting to fuse off experimental features in builds of windows. That makes perfect sense. I don't want to accidentally fuck all my data either. What sends me into an unmitigated schizo frenzy is the part where they double down over and over like it's a game of competitive CTF.

Microsoft did the same thing with notepad.exe. At some point it apparently got so intense that they added code to make it possible to prevent association of certain executables with certain extensions (i.e., if you got cheeky and copied the old version over and tried to use it). I know Microsoft deals in a lot of unusual business, but I'd bet my life there is no rationale for deeply restricting the use case here, other than to be an antagonizing prick to the other team/tribe who simply seeks to use their computer freely.
