Plenty of us at MSFT won't even use a windows desktop because of decisions like this. I don't know who's in charge here, but way to go on killing the goodwill of everyone elses work with stupid features everyone actually hates.
I dunno what it's like nowadays, but when I was at MSFT during the win8/early win10 times, the internal mailing lists where 10x as angry and vicious as what you saw in public. Microsoft employees loved Windows and were fucking pissed that it was getting ruined.
I guess they've all been beaten into submission and/or managed out by now..
Well yeah, I would be pissed too if I couldn't go home proud of the work I did. Like what is even the point of pouring you heart and soul into a thing if by the time anyone sees it it's just a wall of ads?
