Really? Why? See my (only somewhat exaggerated) comment #54 above.
Microsoft has lost their way. I hope they find it again, soon.
Because times change, reality changes, evolve or die. Doesn’t matter if the new UI is good or bad, it’s what’s running the new stuff, it’s the direction the industry is going, you’re either keeping up or becoming a dinosaur.
People have been insisting MS lost their way for over a quarter of a century. Apparently that is their way.
