And of course it's still possible to opt-out with some "pro" version? I mean, there are always situations where you want to avoid to be interrupted by updates

And of course it's still possible to opt-out with some "pro" version? I mean, there are always situations where you want to avoid to be interrupted by updates by all mean... Oh wait, I get it... pro versions are called Arch, Gentoo, etc... ;)

As usual, they will be moved up to Enterprise, with no ability for the consumer to purchase Enterprise.

  Purchasing Enterprise is definitely super annoying but it's not out of reach for an individual. You can only purchase Enterprise through Volume Licensing and you have to find/choose a reseller (VAR in msspeak). But you buy one license of Windows 10 Enterprise and 4 cheap user CALs and you're done. You don't actually have to have a business or anything. Any reseller will just put your own name as the business name. (If your machine didn't come with pro then make that 1 Pro license, 1 Enterprise license, and 3 user CALs.)

    So probably the best next step for MS is to prepare something like a "dev" license, i.e. an Enterprise license for the individual that knows what he is doing.
