This might have been said, but I just see this as a wild attempt to stay relevant and lock people into hardware. Windows is (very, very, slowly) ~~dying~~ gettingworseandshowingpeoplehowbaditis. Gamers are starting to leave for Linux and Proton, which will also only help the Mac gaming market share. Linux on ARM honesty seems like the future for most devices. The corporate world and anything that’s in too deep with Excel is, I feel, the last big hold out.
EDIT: more accurate time scale and less doom and gloom for the future of windows lol
Windows is far from dying.
I do (perhaps sadly) agree with you, just think there is some more nuance to it than that. See my reply to the other comment if you want to see my thoughts.
