I don't know why but Linux users just can't fathom that at some point, a person's time is more valuable than some "efficient" functionality.

Its much much much easier to disable telemetry and ads on windows than to switch to Linux. Infact there are simple one time scripts or even Rufus can create an installation drive without the stuff that Linux users try to dunk on windows with.
