MS motivation is quite clear. Windows is an appliance (an interface) for amazon shopping and watching netflix. The MS telemetry has proven that 99.999% of consumers do not tweak default settings or dig under the hood. The 1-2 million now former "windows power users" are just too small population to be economically feasible to deal with. For MS it does not matter to lose those few to other tweakable OSs. Instead MS's product department is dreaming of scooping the remaining billions of cash-laden consumers. Presumably this is what the telemetry tells them. Cash is good, consuming is good, keeps the economy running, making shareholders happy.
