imo the metro take of windows 8 wasn't the wrong approach for its intended market(tablets) it's just forcing it on desktop/laptop users as well as a boneheaded decision.

They need to stop forcing windows changes for ALL users, including to the users that can't use said features properly (as it was designed with touch screens in mind, and not everyone had touchscreens). Same idea with the more recent stuff involving Recall. not everyone has AI capable pcs, so its dumb to include the change to all users that will exist on the main branch of the OS, and would apply down the line to windows handhelds as well, who will likely not need recall as a feature as its using up resources. And im not like a person whose like fully Anti AI either, it just has its specific userbase that may need it, and there are others (like with a windows handheld case) that should not have it at all, as it is likely a detriment to battery if enabled by default.
