I feel like you're mistaking my dislike of the lack of control in the current system for an "it was better before!". We had more control before, but I'm not dismissing that the same "before" carried less features, less security etc. I don't disagree with you there. But you're making it sound like disabling problematic behaviour is as easy as "wading through a little blogspam"; it's not. I've waded through a lot of blogspam and still haven't been able to fully disable unattended upgrades on my W10 box. I have a "Compatibility telemetry" program which is supposedly disabled systemwide yet regularly caps out my bandwidth. This PC is just a gaming PC and it's barely usable as one. I certainly wouldn't be able to make it my workstation. I'm not complaining because, hey, I got a good alternative in Linux but I think you shouldn't be dismissing what is causing people to seek out things like this Kiosk edition.
