Why should Microsoft cater to people who want to boot Linux? It's not their OS. Apple doesn't either. The Linux community has to build all sorts of workarounds for Apple's crummy practices. Furthermore, if you rarely booted Linux or your Mac - you'd have a lot of update problems with them too. In my experience, Linux Mint will literally shit all over itself when it tries to update, if you haven't constantly kept it up to date for some reason. With Apple, if you haven't updated in a while you might be in for a good 30-60 minutes of fighting with their updater to work properly. Besides that, Apple does weird shit with hardware during updates because of the extreme measures that they go to in order to keep competitors out. That's why there has been a plague of issues with 3rd party (and even 1st part) hardware dying during OS X updates - https://www.google.com/search?q=os+x+mouse+not+working+after+update https://www.google.com/search?q=os+x+mouse+not+working+after... Apple also delivers silent updates - https://www.google.com/search?q=apple+silent+updates https://www.google.com/search?q=apple+silent+updates EDIT: Also, your story conflicts itself. Is it "every single patch Tuesday" or is it "I rarely boot Windows 10"? Anyway, you should just fix your configuration to one that is supported by Microsoft. Would you run a hardware configuration that isn't supported by your Linux distro and then complain about it when it didn't work? No, you would not. And if your reply is that "I'd fix it myself..." - no you probably wouldn't. If you're one of the rare few who actually would, then you're spending the most precious resource that you have in order to do it - your time. In that case - I hope you enjoy doing it! Me? Like many people, I'll take convenience any day over ultimate flexibility.
