> Last, but not least, the boot screen has been updated to the new Windows logo, as well as the new WinUI loading circle, which replaces the dated spinning dots.

I guess this is why I'm not a designer, but why are the spinning dots dated and why is that bad?

My understanding is that the spinning dots are dates because they launched a new UI style which uses a different spinner.

They are dated simply because there is something newer.
