When you refuse to hire junior developers for $50-60k and every new hire has to be a $200k rockstar, the rockstars have to provide value. They have to have something to show. So they have to rearrange something, replace something, do something. This isn't unique to Windows. It's a general problem. When something like network configuration or screen resolution had been a pretty stagnant thing for 20 years, you could just leave it alone or... spruce it up. Sure, it's always possible that there are better ideas. But implementing a change because you have a better idea is one thing. Implementing a change to justify your salary is another thing.
