That looks to me like an apology for a lousy job on the requirements engineering side. Of all possible use-cases the port-tethering behavior stroked them as the most logical? The question that should have been considered is how often can it happen for users to plug the same device on different port vs. to plug two identical devices? Microsoft here gave more thought to the case with a leaser likelihood, in my opinion. How about remembering my device regardless of the port I choose to plug it in and give me the new-device treatment only when I'll actually deserve it by actually plug a(n additional) new device?
